Hey there- I shipped R1T to Kauai- departed by trailer 5-1 from Bend, OR to OAK Matson. Arrived LIhue 5-21. Was aware of 65% Matson ship rule. Daughter had shipped her R1S to HNL 2 weeks prior and had same issue as you did- some guy having to drive down battery before loading. My truck was...
I shipped truck to Kauai from Bend, Or. thru Oakland port-Matson was carrier. Vehicle Matson only allows 65% charge upon port arrival. Truck had a common carrier car hauler pick up in Bend and deliver to port in OAK. Total time between pickup in Bend and arrival in Kauai was 22 days. Charge upon...
Hey MReda- would you post a pic of what the service center replaced cover looks like. I’m sure if that fixes issue several of us would go that route. Thanks.
I was a 1-2-19 pre-order so I had been eagerly awaiting. Delivered 12-30-22 after changing delivery from Hawaii to Bend, OR. . How’s this taste-- $1800 Rivian delivery- $900 Bend to OAK Matson-$2363 OAK Matson to Nawiliwili Kauai port. There went a good portion of my $7500 tax credit.
You don’t want that grief. I think we all knew we were Guinea pigs being early buyers. I suppose something is going to happen to all of us at some point.
Definitely problem- as you know, symptom is the 12V battery issue. This symptom is an ongoing issue with Rivian. Son in law had R1S shipped to HNL month and half ago. Updated and both 12V died- towed and fixed 3 weeks later. Tesla had same problem and has gravitated to lithium 12V if I...
You ask a really good question regarding the bigger issue-damage to the rear wheel alignment. If this was a Toyota Landcruiser, replace tire and get on with life. The jury is still out on RT1 regarding how bullet proof it is. It fared well in the “Long Way Up” over some tough terrain. Please...
Shrink- why do you think Rivian doesn’t offer a 12V option to lead acid like Tesla does. My SIL had both 12 V goes dead after 2023.14 update in his R1S. They live in HNL. SC sends tech to HI once a quarter To service 25 or so Rivian on islands. They replaced his with lead acid 12 V’s.
wonder if ya analyzed the social behavior characteristics of Rivian owners you’d find them to be the type that cut people off, tailgate, throw stuff out of their Rivian windows at bicycle riders, play head-on chicken,
etc.? I give WSea the benefit of the doubt.
