  1. Sad Truth for XMSirius Radio in Rivian's

    BTW, back in the day SXM had repeaters in large cities so tall buildings didn’t interfere very much. Not 100% but good enough to drive in San Francisco and other places like NYC and Atlanta downtown.
  2. Sad Truth for XMSirius Radio in Rivian's

    You made my point and I wasn’t completely clear in my reply to you. My original comment was it doesn’t auto fold the mirrors in Park. The setting you speak of is to auto fold when locking the vehicle. I don’t lock the car at home since I park it in the garage. I can’t count the times I go to...
  3. Sad Truth for XMSirius Radio in Rivian's

    I think you missed a big part of this discussion. Rivian doesn’t support XMS BT technology, seems it not setup for devices other than phones. The second point to consider, as stated in my original post, you need to tear into the vehicle and find power, they removed the under dash outlet, and...
  4. Sad Truth for XMSirius Radio in Rivian's

    Not auto fold. Got to change screens then manually fold mirrors. Not the end of the world but another small annoyance. Auto fold only with locking the vehicle. Don’t lock at home in the garage. Side note: in addition to 4 other SO items waiting for 81 days waiting to get in the earliest...

    To answer some of your questions 1. Apple iPhone 2. 5 lifetime subscriptions 3. Very few situations where satellite signal goes in and out over last 18+ years 4. Listen to lots of live content 5. Depending which unit is installed by OEM previous programming can be played 6. R1S was one of 2...
  6. Sad Truth for XMSirius Radio in Rivian's

    I'd like to make it clear that not having XMS radio is not the primary reason for getting out of the R1S, which I said is a great vehicle. Read the rest to get a better feeling about why I'm selling my R1S, The primary reason is that this wonderfully built vehicle is far more off-road than I...
  7. Sad Truth for XMSirius Radio in Rivian's

    Streaming works when you have a good cellular signal. I live in an area with very poor cellular coverage, so it's spotty at best. The other issue is you have to remember to start streaming prior to driving otherwise you're not hands free, and frankly it's dangerous to manipulate the phone to...
  8. Sad Truth for XMSirius Radio in Rivian's

    I as many have been discouraged with the lack of having access to XMS radio in our Rivian's. I've read several threads about attempts to install them with little luck and with the complications of trying to have them installed. What I have learned is not encouraging. I understand how Tesla...

  10. R1S Forest Green Vs Limestone

    If you’re close to a delivery (SC) location go visit then you can compare in person. I love our forest green because it spoke to me. Get whichever color speaks to you. You’ll be living with it for a while.
  11. Is this worth entering a Service Request for?

    When I called end of September, two weeks after delivery for a San Jose SC, my first available date was December 27th. When I called to add my second issue I got it moved upto December 20th. Now that I’ve called back for my sixth item it’s still December 20th. I was encouraged to call back with...

    Just wondering if the magnets will stay on in a car wash?
  13. Accelerator Pedal

    I've got the same issue and have talked to service about this. I've got an appointment already for my steering wheel making noises when moving into driver position. I have to depress the pedal 2 inches before the motors engage to move the R1S. The only way I can fix it so far is to sit really...
  14. Closing charge port door is a pain -- Am I missing something?

    I'm having the same issue. Let me start at the beginning. I have the R1S set not to lock at home. There are times when I lock it in the garage because the space between it and my Tesla X is pretty narrow. The Rivian door handles sticking out can be hazardous, especially when they catch on a...
  15. Rear ended. Warranty + repair shop nightmares

    Sorry about your damage. I have AAA and on the rare occasion of being involved in a mishap AAA has always handled everything for me. They have preferred shops (you don't need to use them) where they work directly with the estimator and pay directly less any deductible. If it's a no fault...
  16. Road Trip Planning

    So, today we finished our 1st longish day trip from the South San Francisco Bay Area to UC Davis, where I started the trip at 100% charge and used Alexa to plot out the trip. Under all-purpose, the R1S Adventure model showed I had a 303 miles range. Side note, under All Purpose I was averaging...
