  1. Rivian won't sell me a truck due to my middle name. WTF.

    I had this same issue. Apparently my decelerations page is not suitable and they wanted the card, even though the card has less info then the declarations page! Progressive never heard of such a crazy policy when I asked for the cards, which they could not provide unless I purchased insurance...
  2. R1S Spare Tire delivery?

    Would like to know as well. Service center told me Q1 next year. They said Rivian had to find another supplier for the compact spare.
  3. Sporadic regen after replacing tire

    Thanks. I just checked the connection and it would be near impossible to damage it from taking the wheel off since it is behind the wheel hub. I was also the one that removed the wheel. That's what I was thinking about the wrong size and the truck is reacting to it but I checked and the tire is...
  4. Sporadic regen after replacing tire

    What type of sensor could be damaged from a tire replacement. You think a TPMS could be a possible culprit?
  5. Sporadic regen after replacing tire

    I have an R1S with only 4k miles on it. Rear tire had to be replaced and ever since that replacement my regenerative braking has been acting strange. Sometimes when regen braking even when not braking hard, it has a feeling like the vehicle is sporadically going into neutral and eases up on the...
  6. $500 to repair / replace carabiner key fob

    Service center lost my fob so they had to take care of the costs.
  7. $500 to repair / replace carabiner key fob

    $235 for new fob and reprogram. $175 for fob and $60 for labor. This was 2 weeks ago. Same as what @SANZC02 paid. They did a cloud enrollment so when I put the battery in the fob and went to settings I was able to pair the fob to my profile.
  8. R1 shop order = Buying Rejected Car?

    Who cares about the production date? You know how many vehicles are sitting in dealer lots from a long time ago, or have been stuck at the factory due to issues and then shipped to dealers once resolved. This is not uncommon. No reason to reject a vehicle. You have a warranty that is generous.
  9. Rivian won't sell me a truck due to my middle name. WTF.

    This is precisely the easiest and fastest solution to overcome this selectively enforced policy.
  10. Rivian won't sell me a truck due to my middle name. WTF.

    Not sure why he has to blame himself? Middle names are often not on paperwork. I have a DL, passport, global entry, CCW, port authority ID, boaters license, state ID, notary, school ID. All of these are government issued by either fed/state/county governments. Some have middle name, some don't...
  11. Rivian won't sell me a truck due to my middle name. WTF.

    This is the stupidest load of crap I've ever heard and no legal reason to have the middle name present. I'm looking back at some old agreements for other vehicles I've purchased and some have it some don't. Even my R1T and R1S purchase agreements are different! One with, and one without middle...
  12. Help Can't put in gear

    I used the SOS button. Lady answered, from a contracted call center that handles other manufacturers and didn't even pronounce "Rivian" correctly and didn't even know what type of vehicle it was. All they can do is dispatch emergency services or transfer your call to actual Rivian service...
  13. Would you be comfortable with an 8800 vin R1S?

    Congratulations. Hope you get it. On delivery go through everything in detail, take pictures, make a list, and create a ticket in the app before you even leave if there's anything you're not happy with (panel gaps, scratches, etc.). The service center will take care of everything so no need to...
  14. question on gear guard cable

    They can be cut with nail clippers, so if you're in a bad area and concerned about somebody stealing an expensive e-bike then I'd bring it inside. The cable is helpful for quick rest stops or when at a camp ground to prevent sticky fingers, but if left unattended in a bad area, somebody that...
  15. Would you be comfortable with an 8800 vin R1S?

    I see no reason why to not jump on this. It's a 2023 model year so no difference in depreciation, plus you're getting the benefit of the Launch Edition. If anything, earlier VINs are better put together based on my recent experience.
  16. How Much it Cost to Drive a Rivian 3,000 Miles Compared to a Midsize Gas Pickup Truck Cents Per Mile

    16k on the R1T and 5k on the R1S. Total cost of electric over past 12 months was $384. (Utility company gives unlimited L2 charging for $31 a month) Much better than $384 in gas which would only get me 1800 miles in my previous truck. The point is to charge at home and not exclusively use DCFC
  17. When will the Count's R1S get a "jumping mode" like MB offers?

    Not really understanding this theme of referring to oneself in the third person. Or is somebody posting on your behalf? Please enlighten me :sun:
  18. Introducing RMaxx Running Boards & Rock Sliders for Rivian R1T / R1S from Team 1EV

    Agreed. They are either professionals at giving the runaround or incompetent at forecasting manufacturing schedules.
  19. 12v plug info

    I believe the 12v is off when the vehicle is sleeping so you'll need to enable the outlets in the infotainment for 12v to stay on. When vehicle is on, the 12v is on and will keep charged by the high voltage battery.
  20. How to open speaker grille?

    Service center said the grill is part of the door panel. I needed a grill replacement and they had to replace the entire panel.
