These ratchet straps look cool—nice and tidy. Do you have a link? Also, I would be careful with how much you rely on those factory rivnuts (the ones with the little plastic caps used to fasten the liner). If you go with installing a larger diameter riv nut above the wheel arches, you may have a...

I actually looked into this recently because I’m going to do the same thing (riv nuts in metal with some larger punched holes in the liner nut so I don’t have to take the liner out to install, and allow for the liner to be easily removed at a later date if need be). I am planning to mount an air...

I believe they have a totally different HVAC system, what with Gen 2s having a heat pump, so I would hope they designed it better than the Gen 1 system (which has had various issues with cooling from the beginning, though this drain issue seems to be increasingly prevalent this summer for...

Gen 1. I’m not sure if I’ve heard of any Gen 2s with this issue, have you?

It’s so strange to me how this wasn’t a problem in the first couple years, but now seems like a very widespread issue. My father’s Launch R1T bricked due to condensate backing into the cabin, my 2022 R1T is in the shop now getting the whole HVAC/carpet replacement as we speak (and faulty AXM...

This is an alarming trend so far in this thread (people who have had this problem persist with multiple HVAC assembly replacements). I can't imagine how expensive these replacements would be out of warranty, but having to tear apart the whole interior of the truck and reassemble is obviously...

Agreed—I'm not really sure how they can resolve this one. I did share a direct contact that can hopefully take ownership and help sort the OP sort out the various challenging factors in this situation (as the service manager for this territory's SC, he should be in as good a position as any to...

Our third R1T had a failed front damper at around 7-8k miles (they replaced both), and I believe it was a newer revision (2024, VIN 33585). To my knowledge, I'm still on original front dampers on my truck (2022, VIN 10264). I gave up on trying to get service records (I purchased a demo with just...

Wow 😮 You are in quite a pickle! I commend you for remaining calm and articulate in what sounds like a very nightmarish scenario. While I have felt helpless at times dealing with what are shaping up to be fairly unreliable Rivians (we have four, two of which have had a lot more issues than the...

I bought a demo with 10k miles last May. I had both rear dampers replaced shortly after purchase (in addition to jounce lines, cv axles, and some other things that were making for a fairly clunky/loud ride). This Spring I noticed my left rear damper leaking when I took off my winter...

We bought some extra stripping but ended up using just what was provided. I saw that triple seal post, but the way they configured it, that could still let water/dust in by not forming a complete barrier (unless it crushes down to seal, which it might). We also used our own black silicone to...

I'm glad you were able to get such prompt service, and didn't have to go through the truck bricking like my dad's did. Given the severe (and costly) consequences for not addressing this early, I can't believe that the soonest available appointment for our third truck with this issue was the end...

I got in on the Autofit pro for the first group buy. They are about to wrap up their third group buy (I’m pretty sure there’s still time to place an order). It took a couple months, but it was very well made and fit perfectly. We got ours for the truck we provide our builder/facilities...

Well it sounds like you’ve had your fair share of major warranty items too! It really would make a difference being close to the SC. I have mostly had good experiences when problems arise, it just becomes more time consuming and logistically complicated when we have to take a day to get to and...

I might agree if it wasn’t such a frequent occurrence on our two ‘22 quads (VINs 5852 and 10264). The former just got back from its 5th or 6th trip to the SC, with a combined several months away. The latter is on its 4th trip to the SC in a few months over a year (it was a demo I got with 10k...

Yes, I’m sure many meet the lemon law requirements set forth by their state. Usually a manufacturer would rather initiate a buyback than actually go through official lemon law arbitration (the title becomes salvaged and they still have to take the vehicle back/refund the customer (minus some...

Yikes 😬 it’s posts like these and a few others already on this thread with multiple recurring instances/repairs that have me really concerned. I hope they’ve sorted this out by now and figured out to really fix the issue… though it’s not looking great with all these reports of multiple...

Actually, I just received word this morning that Canton will be live next week (we have a few trucks in need of service, so I've been in corespondence with the Service Manager directly regarding which location we will be taking our third truck in need of HVAC system attention—we just got one...

According to the service manager at Canton (who is currently also the interim service manager at Chelsea), it should be open sometime this month, maybe as soon as a week or two.

I’m surprised they didn’t replace your carpets (given the musty smell and dampness you describe). For anyone who hasn’t had this done yet—I’d push for carpet replacement since you may not have noticed it getting wet and I’d imagine your carpeting could cycle between wet and dry depending on...
