I did another hard reset to no avail. Then I tried a software reset. It is charging now. I will let it charge for the next three days and get as far as I can toward home. I strongly feel, since it has affected both of my 26 Rivians using all types of Tesla chargers, that there is a software...

I just tried that as well. I have done several resets. I think when the did that update, even though I did not go to that program, that is when my troubles began. It is time to sell the Rivians and go back to Tesla. I just did not have theses issues driving Teslas for 10 years.

I have two Tesla version 4 chargers at home. I have two 26 Rivians. Both started having issues about a month ago, where I would have to plug in multiple times. I have two new Tesla portable chargers. I am on a vacation in Blueridge GA. Everytime I tried to supercharge, I had to plug in...

Try conserve mode and watch not to accelerate hard enough to engage the rear motors. If it still pulls, it is the front. If it stops pulling, it is the rear. A more worn tire on the left will cause a pull to the right due to the smaller radius on the left. Also a difference in tire pressure...

To make a long story short, we bought two gen 2s, R1S tri and R1T quad. I still have my Gen 1 T Quad and it’s still for sale. After driving the gen 2s, I talked to Rivian about the rattle from the front suspension that the gen 2s dont have. I brought it to Rivian, and the replaced the front...

I just tool delivery of my 26 QM Launch edition. I am selling my 23 QM Red Canyon with 21” Road tires. The Tires have about 10,000 miles on them. It have Xpel windshield and front PPF. The I tire truck is ceramic coated. It comes with the Rmaxx Rock Sliders and Interobang manual tonneau...

I towed that same lift with my R1T. It is effortless. As a side note. If you are working where you are staying in one position, you can pull the red button(Emergency stop) while you are in that position and it will stop the hour meter. I did the weekend rental to install solar, and was...

I think Lucid has the best drivetrain of all the manufacturers. With the pricing of R1Ss, the Gravity is about the same. I was going to replace the MYP with a R1S for my wife, but every time I crunch the numbers, I can’t seem to get a straight answer from Rivian. I have a client getting a...

Demonstrates their culture

I guess I was referring to pottery from the Ming dynasty, and the fact that fine dishes are called “China.” Today, Other companies have copied “Fine China” and could be making better dishes, but that really would be subjective.

The finest vases and dishes come from china. I remember when Steve Jobs was asked how much it would cost to build the iPhone 4 in the states. He said $2000. Chinese will build to whatever quality you want. It is based on how much we are willing to pay. They were actually using prototyping...

Update I scheduled service in October 24 for Jan 14th. My truck went in for service January 17th. I got my truck back February 10th. All seems to be working well. Unfortunately, my truck had a hub bolt back out which the service center concidered it undriveable. That meant the truck had to sit...

I finally got the torque values for the hub bolts 135nm. Thank you.

As soon as they admitted your truck fell off the lift, I would have been done. That is what they have insurance for. I like the concept of the company, and would love to encourage you to press on. I truely hope they succeed. Unfortunately, I have lost my faith in the company. I don’t think they...

I installed a Hanshow second display to my Model Y. For two hours, I had the same thing. No sound inside or out. It was wonderful. It sounds like(pun intended) the outside sounds on both vehicles are generated by the same source as our inside sounds systems. I suspect separate amplifiers, but...

Update. Rivian decided my truck was not safe to drive. They towed it in last Thursday. They said they are waiting for parts, so the would not even look at it until the parts are in. If I could get $65,000 for it while it was at the shop and change ownership before coming out, it would be sold.

Ironically, the service center cross threaded a bolt on my seatback on my first visit. I discovered this as I developed a rattle driving home. I had to retap the threads myself. This program would be for those that are mechanically inclined. I also do not let anyone rotate my tires as I have...

I am suggesting a change in the way warranty work can be done in the automotive industry. This is not a bandaid. This would be a permanent option. I would like to see Rivian be the first in the automotive industry to do this. The reality is Rivian does not have the resources to put a service...

This has the potential to dramatically reduce the downtime. It could be a positive marketing tool, save Rivian money in this critical time for the company, and help with the ramp up to the R2. They, like Tesla are going to need to build more service centers, but this could help while they are...

In aviation, if an aircraft needs service, you can fly to a service center and have them do warranty work. They also give you the option of having the parts shipped to you and you having a certified mechanic install the replacement parts. The defective parts are sent back. The manufacturer...
