  1. Best ride settings for the R1S Performance Dual Motor 21in

    24 DM R1S here. My setup: Standard height Soft ride Low regen No Kneel Mode (running boards)
  2. R1S Accessory Recommendations Needed!

    No screen protectors here. Was on the fence then caught my kid dragging his baseball cleats on the rear screen and it survived without a scratch so figure I’ll roll the dice (not an iPhone screen protector guy either - just not a fan). I did get the following: Running boards Interior storage...
  3. Navigation continues to be wrong

    Probably unpopular take here but my navigation has been great with no issues. Occasionally I compare what my Rivian is suggesting versus Waze, Apple, and Google maps, and almost every time it’s identical. Maybe I’ve just been lucky, but so far so good!
  4. Simple Frunk / Front Trunk Lighting Solution

    This is a big miss for the R1S. I regularly go out to grab stuff from my frunk at night in the garage and even with my overhead garage lights on I can hardly see anything. Really need a good solution here.
  5. StowNCharge by Adventure High Tech - Review / Installation

    Just installed mine yesterday with Apple pucks. Mixed feelings about it… The good: installation was easy, looks great, love the small storage area, it sticks well to my phone out of the case. The bad: the factory pad charged my phone in the MagSafe compatible case. This does not. Real bummer...
  6. Liftgate Lighting Brightness

    Aha! I will try this today.
  7. Liftgate Lighting Brightness

    No idea. Have the same question. My 2024 has done this since the day I got it. Had 2023 loaner from service center, it did the same thing.
  8. Coolers that fit in the frunk?

    I have not tried either of these in the frunk yet - Rivian R1S only a few weeks old, one of which was spent at the Service Center getting a new HV battery... BUT, these are what I've always used in my vehicles - one requires being plugged in and can do cold OR hot (great for transporting food)...
  9. Brand new R1S is DEAD

    Closing the loop here. Hopefully my sharing this adventure here will help others in the future when it happens to them. Attaching the work order. Vehicle is back in my garage with new batteries. Let’s ride!
  10. Brand new R1S is DEAD

    UPDATE The HV battery has been replaced. I’m told it was charged and test driven and everything is fine. Importantly, when I pressed, I was given NO explanation as to why or how this could happen, nor if I could expect it to happen again. Pretty disconcerting. On the positive side, I have a...
  11. Brand new R1S is DEAD

    Update So the Service Center told me there’s this great new feature Rivian just rolled out within their app where we can send service messages to one another. Well only problem is it doesn’t work. When I go to the messages in the app there’s no option to send anything and I’m not receiving any...
  12. Brand new R1S is DEAD

    FWIW I have the Standard+ battery. Totally unrelated but I prefer my dual motor build to the loaner they gave me. It’s a 2023 Quad with Large pack. It makes a lot of little tick noises (I assume the suspension) and the ride is not as soft (I assume the wheel size). It’s solid black on black...
  13. Brand new R1S is DEAD

    Just to confirm - the Service Center stated on Friday that "it's the HV battery" and that it needs to be replaced. I asked what caused this and he said "there are no notes in the system". My understanding is that the Service Center has ordered a new HV battery and are waiting for it to arrive...
  14. Brand new R1S is DEAD

    Well I just got another call. It’s the HV battery. They don’t know when they will get one in so my car is on a “parts hold” with no estimated completion timing. I have a feeling I’ll be in the loaner for a bit… No explanation was given as to what could have caused this.
  15. Brand new R1S is DEAD

    UPDATE For as much as this sucks, Rivian Service has been A+. Have called me multiple times already this morning. Got me set up with Uber vouchers and SUV rental, and have arranged an R1S loaner. Service Center still diagnosing but have ordered parts, expected Monday, and hopefully back on the...
  16. Brand new R1S is DEAD

    After posting I was just reading about this one: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/guess-it-was-my-time-12v-is-dead.26523/ Interestingly, I just did the new software update last night. Sounds like he had, too. Coincidence?
  17. Brand new R1S is DEAD

    Picked up my R1S less than two weeks ago. 205 miles on it now. Battery was at 70%. Parked it at kids baseball game tonight. Came back an hour later. It wakes, but when I get in a chime is sounding. The car won’t fully turn on and won’t drive. I get out and get back in. Same thing. Try a reset...
  18. R1S Software Update Suggestions

    Thanks - never knew that. Doing it now!
  19. R1S Software Update Suggestions

    I use the 360, too, but the front guide lines are just way better - particularly doing something like pulling into a tight garage. In the Tahoe you simply line up the shot with the guides and it's like a video game - right in perfectly every time. In the Rivian you look at the front camera and...
  20. R1S Software Update Suggestions

    New R1S owner as of last Friday. Have a question - is there an official place to submit desired software updates to Rivian for their consideration? Probably not, but figured I'd ask. For example, our Chevy Tahoe has a front camera that shows the guide lines. The R1S only shows the guide...
