Yeah, I'm guessing it's just an easy way to make sure their techs are always busy and there's little possibility of them having down time. By always having a queue of cars waiting to be serviced it ensures there's no way of them finishing early for the day. It's just such so minor what they're...
I agree, I think having an appointment for several weeks, and then having to wait several days before they even look at it is ridiculous! I just posted something similar (https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/tampa-service-center.26553/).
All of these stories seem crazy and absurd for $100K+ vehicles. The thread I just posted (https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/tampa-service-center.26553/) is a different take on the wait time issue. I'd rather wait longer to drop my vehicle off, but have them get right to it, as opposed...
I've had an appointment set up for about a month for this service center for a charge port door adjustment, and possibly a replacement front camera. Both of these items seem fairly small and I was expecting to get to the service center and wait a couple of hours while they worked on it, and...
Wanted to add another spin to this thread:
If I have a trip where I know I'll need to use 80% of my battery's capacity, is it better to charge to 100% and drain to 20%, or charge to 80% and drain to 0%?
Note: I would probably do 90% to 10% but I mainly want to know if it's better to use the...
I've had my truck for less than a week and haven't used the speaker yet. You mean to tell me the speaker doesn't charge when it's docked?! Does the flashlight charge when docked?!
This is helpful. Just wasn't sure if it was normal to leave an EV plugged in from 9pm when it would roughly be at it's 70% all the way to 7am or so. Sounds like it's insignificant enough that it shouldn't deserve any time worrying about it.
I'm not sure if this has been asked before, but I'm trying to figure out the next way to manage the battery. I live in FL and keep my car in a garage so the garage temps are usually between 60-70F.
If I have my battery limit set to 70%. Is it best to leave it plugged in once it gets to 70% or...
Just got the truck today! The wait felt like an eternity, but it was well worth it! Just installed the EVSportiline tonneau cover and put in the WeatherTech floor mats. Got a long trip planned tomorrow and going to learn a lot more about the truck! Really happy to be a part of this community!
That's awesome that yours is about 2 weeks sooner than mine. I ended up ordering the rivian wall charger and scheduling an electrician at the same time. The rivian charger took forever just to ship out and I ended up just ordering a charge point charger from Amazon. Im in the process of...
That will help me keep my hopes up for a potential early delivery. I can't imagine how people waited a couple of years for a build date. I don't have that kind of patience.
