  1. Gen 2 cast subframe replacement (for failed welds on front subframe) - now like a new truck!

    Resurrecting an older thread… Our 2023 R1S (VIN 7xxx) went in last week for the third time for this, planning to have the subframe replaced with the gen 2. They called a week in and said we already had the updated subframe. So now they’re replacing the front half shafts (again), hubs and...
  2. Clicking noise when accelerating.

    Our 2023 R1S (VIN 7xxx) went in last week for the third time for this, planning to have the subframe replaced with the gen 2. They called a week in and said we already had the updated subframe. So now they’re replacing the front half shafts (again), hubs and front drive unit. I was not aware...
  3. 2026 Rivian R2 Specs & Reviews!! 300+ Mile Range, 10-80% Charge in 30 Min, 656 hp / 609 lb-ft, 0-60 mph in 3.6s, dimensions

    Yeah I’m very curious if they’ve learned their lesson or not
  4. The Dreaded Axle Clunk is Back for Gen 1 AND Early Gen 2! But my R1S Now is Better Than New from Factory

    Our R2 reservation was meant for me (although so was the R1 reservation….) but we’re pretty convinced that we won’t keep our R1S that my wife drives after we get the R2. The suspension is about 95% of that decision. We’ve had half shafts replaced multiple times. Multiple torn bushings...
  5. Wet spot under driver mat

    One year later and I’m on my way to the SC to pick up the car after our second wet carpet issue. Same as last time - they claimed it was coming from the HVAC and re-sealed it (??? I’m gonna need more technical info than that….).
  6. The Dreaded Axle Clunk is Back for Gen 1 AND Early Gen 2! But my R1S Now is Better Than New from Factory

    We’ve had our half shafts replaced twice. Most recently added the new ting washers, and they found the front lower control arms bushings were torn, so they replaced the entire arms with an updated model. 40k miles on the R1S. I’ve got a 21 year old 5.9 Cummins that has less suspension issues...
  7. Rivian Update 2025.34 Now Downloading! - Upgrades / Fixes to Expect

    Let’s be clear - the bug fixes we get are 100% owed and expected for all generations, as they’re issues Rivian has caused (directly or indirectly) themselves - whether by lack of testing, lack of data, creating more bugs when trying to introduce features or fix other bugs, etc. Feature updates...
  8. Any Success with Small Claims/Prosecuting with Gear Guard video?

    Any Success with Small Claims/Prosecuting with Gear Guard video Seems pretty clear to me. Wishing you the best of luck spending your time and money!
  9. Any Success with Small Claims/Prosecuting with Gear Guard video?

    You think you’re going to change this person, and subsequently the world, by making an example of him? Got a big man right here. I hope you spend hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars to try and get your $100 from him (which, by the way, unless you can prove malicious intent, you are...
  10. Any Success with Small Claims/Prosecuting with Gear Guard video?

    I was almost going to leave this one alone, and enjoy the laugh it provided me. But then you commented this and I just have to clarify - your title asked if anyone has been successful prosecuting or reclaiming via small claims. I think you have a significant misunderstanding of the legal...
  11. Michelin Defender LTX M/S 2 275/50/22 115 review

    So yall put these on and generally agree they are more quiet and equally as efficient but perform worse? Hrm. I’m not fond of the options to replace our OEM pirellis on the S. I may end up doing the PS5S on the 22s and get a winter tire to swap onto my extra set of 20’s that have ATs mounted...
  12. 2025.26 Update Release Notes

    That sucks. The solution they’re trying today is just another example of over-engineering. Just list both options on the screen and be done with it.
  13. Bugs in the latest firmware (2025.14.30)

    Seconded on Apple Music stability issues returning. Pauses all the time now. Atmos vs non Atmos volume issues as well. Remind me why everyone loves that Wassym guy again? After two years with our R1S, every. damn. update. has some new or resurfaced problem.
  14. For my R1T, I think I prefer 2025.06 ride feel/suspension over 2025.10

    I’m starting to lose my patience with the constant unintended side effects from these updates - with no reasonable way to decline updates or rollback method.
  15. Rear Light Bar Squeaking

    The service center said it wasn’t fully seated. I’m not sure that’s entirely accurate because it was level, but if so, something definitely dislodged it. I’d check that it is seated fully.
  16. For my R1T, I think I prefer 2025.06 ride feel/suspension over 2025.10

    Low speed (parking lot speeds) is better on this update. 30-40mph is awful now. This car jumps sideways at any minor road undulation, completely unsettling the car. Specific spots even on our drive into the neighborhood exhibit this behavior.
  17. 12V Battery failure occurred during Update 2024.51.02 and broke my R1S

    FWIW after the update our garage quick open button was glitching, and not appearing when actually at the house but randomly coming up when away. A reset seems to have resolved that.
