I've almost lost a finger a few times over the past weeks. I've gotten really good at acting like a gunslinger in a duel when I unplug. Fastest man in the West! :)
As posted above, it only comes on when certain deceleration thresholds are exceeded. It's definitely not every time you lift of the accelerator. That would be crazy.
Easiest way to see when they're coming on is to drive at night with the crossbars installed in the bed. They reflect the...
I’ve had 20% on the front windows of every vehicle I’ve ever owned, including my R1T. Highly unlikely you’d ever get stopped for it. If you get pinched for speeding or something else, a cop in a bad mood might tack it on as a fix it ticket. I’ve never had any issues.
Thought this was a nice bit of good news. I know it's not the 10K vans/year that we're expecting, but it's still triple the number that were in use as of November.

You're in a really tough spot. Sorry you've had such a terrible experience. I'd be second guessing what my next move should be as well. Best of luck with whatever you decide.
Appreciate the responses.
In summary,
Do 4 wheels. Do 5 wheels. Do it yourself. Have Rivian do it. Do it at 5K, 6K, 7K, and 9K miles. Got it.
Kidding of course. I do think this thread is a good indicator that some guidance direct from Rivian would be useful.
Interesting post, and you could very well be right.
My personal perspective is that they've just tabled (pun intended) accessories and features until they've ramped vehicle production to a higher level. Wall street doesn't care about accessiories, it seems to only care about pumping as many...
Question: How often are you all rotating tires, and are you doing a 5 wheel rotation (rotating the spare into use), or are you just doing four? I'm at 7K miles and thinking it's getting close to time.
Does Rivian provide any guidance on this?
Thanks
I’m becoming more and more convinced that dash cam functionality won’t be released until they figure out how they’re going to monetize it.
I hope I’m wrong.
Was it already approved and you’re just waiting on the check?
I received the check about 5 weeks after getting the email letting me know my rebate was approved (which was only a few days after I submitted it)
Mine had the shakes at anything over 60. Took it to my SC (lucky for me, 10 minutes away), and they tried a quick rebalance. It helped slightly, but not much. My service advisor told me that it happens on most of the trucks they've delivered, and the only way to correct it is to do nothing...
I have not noticed this behavior on my truck.
I leave my climate set to 70 degrees on Auto, and the truck keeps it at 70 degrees without any other interventions from me. I can hear (and see) the vents opening and closing depending on whether it needs to heat or cool the cabin.
Maybe it varies...
What was the state of charge when you parked it for the night? Your numbers actually don't seem like too crazy of a loss. In the cold, and running around town I get somewhere around 1.5 miles per KwH. So 70 miles would equate to using around 47 KwH during the day. At 70% SoC, you'd have been...
