I found that if the Wifi signal is weak, it will stay connected to the Wifi network but can't send/receive any data. I see this happen when wifi signal is 1 bar but sometimes 2 bars will result in no connection. It won't try cellular signal as a backup while connected to a Wifi network...

Sounds like you need to complain more and get it escalated to higher priority. This would be up there on functional issues that limit the usability of the car.

2025 R1S DM Standard here. I am wondering if anyone can tell where where the A/C condensation should come out from underneath the car. Every other car I have ever owned has hole or single point where all the water drips out. I would expect it to be the same on this car but something seems...

Watched the video. Many of his complaints about derating were caused by the Tesla handle getting too hot. Of course he can't be seen on camera doing the wet rag trick, but I suspect most of us would ignore Tesla's "advice" in the pursuit of faster charging. Can Tesla really detect the wet...

Gen 2 standard pack here. Mine has had all the L2 charging glitches mentioned above plus other random ones. I'm never sure if it's related to the incoming voltage being on the low end. My charger is at a commercial building so it is 208VAC and there is some voltage drop when pulling the...

Same thing happened to me after the previous software update. A hard reset fixed the problem. My procedure now is to do a hard reset after every software update. I usually turn the car on first and put it in drive and park before the hard reset. If it’s gonna throw errors after and update...

Gen2 DM here. I find that when I’m going “too fast” and shift from reverse to drive, the accelerator pedal will make this pulsating feel and almost like a ticking sound. Since the pedal is not connected to and real drivetrain, I assume it’s something in the pedal motor thingy. It’s only...

On a similar topic, does anyone with a Gen2 know where the AC condensation is supposed to come out under the car. On my R1S DM STD, it just seems to collect in the underbody panels and only drips out when I am on a slope. I don’t see any obvious drain holes in the shields. The edges of the...

They are not going to get out of a ticket. Despite where the charging post was placed, that was not a designated EV charging spot. It is clearly marked "Only" on the handicap sign. Best practice is to take any other non-accessible spot first. EVG-250 Electric Vehicle Charging Stations...

Definitely contact Rivian customer service and let them know what happened. The reset should have captured the diagnostic info. I’ve quickly come to realize that we are all Gen 2 beta tester for at least the next year. The more people report these random glitches, the faster they will get fixed.

Any reason you didn’t do a hard reset? After the update, my car didn’t seem to know where it was at. Parked in a garage so no GPS signal. It defaulted its location to Palo Alto. I wonder if I should disable wifi next time before running an update. Anyone know if Rivian uses cell signal to...

I think a good amount of the demand right now is voucher holders. Rivian will never admit that or publish the numbers. All the early build Gen 2 have been delivered so they don’t need to do promos to offload those. They don’t need to do anymore this quarter to drive deliveries. Q4 will be...

Anyone notice the AC takes much longer to kick on and start blowing out cold air? Before this update, I think the heat pump would turn on right away after pressing the snowflake button, and cold air would start very shortly after. Now it seems to take a minute before I start feeling any cold...

Here is another data set. Data is pulled every minute by the EVSE. This is at an office so we run at 208VAC nominal. I'm sure is some additional voltage drop happening between the EVSE and the Rivian onboard charger. I think the line voltage is fluctuating depending on other facility loads...

If the 3rd row vents can supply cool air, then I would expect that Gen2 models can now supply heated air also. I haven't been able to jump in the third row and have someone else in the front change all the temperatures to test this out. It's also still pretty hot here so I have no desire to...

Gen 2 R1T have been in the Shop for a few weeks now. Usually these are built already and it only takes no more than 3-4 weeks for delivery. There should be some people with confirmed delivery dates coming up soon.

I was under the impression from past comments that the third row vents only blew recirculated air from the cabin, not heated or cooled air like the other vents in the car. Reading the documentation from the 2025 user manual, it clearly says the 3rd row vents can blow cooled air but not...

That's good to know. One time I almost rolled into cross traffic at the bottom because the brakes were so faded and I didn't brake early enough. My wife will definitely appreciate a boring decent down the grade when we take the R1S. :D

Thanks for posting about Groveland charging outpost and going up Old priest grade. Old priest is pretty steep but even my old prius could make it up. Of course it didn't sound happy after the battery got depleted but it could make it. The real challenging (scary would be better...

?...why can't they get the HVAC system right. Running the HVAC system full blast for extended times should be like test #1 of engineering validation. It should also be something the service center does during PDI, and also something every customer should do during the delivery process. If...
