  1. Tesla releases J1772 Wall Connector Home Charger (For Non-Teslas)

    While i will give you this point EVSE are really just glorified extension cords so they are pretty reliable.
  2. PSA: Possible Major Security Issue With Rivian Alarm System

    YUUUUP, seems like the camera inside doesn't detect the motion. One thing to note, from what i'm seeing that car seat dock isn't even in with the seat belt but the latch anchors instead. This alarm system leaves A LOT to be desired.
  3. Error Message: Charging Unavailable until Serviced

    Make sure you tell them over and over again to check the charging port and harness first. I'm guess my truck was in the shop 4 days longer then it should have been since they didn' t check that first.
  4. Warning about EVgo charging in the Rivian app (it's not free as it says)

    While I generally agree with most of these statements and do charge at home 99% of the time, this is getting a bit off topic.
  5. Recent Service: Charging Port failed - Truck Failed to Shift Into Gear

    This is correct, no charge for the tows both to the service center and back to my house.
  6. Warning about EVgo charging in the Rivian app (it's not free as it says)

    Yeah I'm still fighting with Rivian over this but it seems to be a losing battle. They keep telling me that complementary charging is only available on the RAN (yeah we know) and are telling me to reach out to EVgo for information. They don't seem to get that THEIR OWN APP showed the station...
  7. Error Message: Charging Unavailable until Serviced

    Honestly, I wouldn't recommend trying a DC charger as it might leave you stranded.
  8. Error Message: Charging Unavailable until Serviced

    From a DC charger, no. When they towed the truck to the Service center i did notice them charging it over AC and from what i heard from them the truck still didn't go into gear. So it could AC charge, not DC Charge, and couldn't be put into gear.
  9. Error Message: Charging Unavailable until Serviced

    No I unfortunately didn't... I had the wife and kids with me so getting them home was priority over everything else that was going on. I did look at the pins on both the charger and truck and didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. Also had no problem actually plugging in the charger.
  10. Error Message: Charging Unavailable until Serviced

    I'm the person that was stranded... they had to change out my charging port. Said that the harness had the cable pushed out of it, possibly from the DCFC or something else. Not a good sign if it's more widespread.
  11. Recent Service: Charging Port failed - Truck Failed to Shift Into Gear

    Yeah thank god it was local especially since i had my wife and kids with me. If it's a wear thing on the port i'm concerned because I don't DCFC that much.
  12. Recent Service: Charging Port failed - Truck Failed to Shift Into Gear

    Yeah seems weird considering the charger plugged in just fine, I didn't force it or anything so who knows. It almost seems like a slight bend pushed the back end of the charge port connector out or something but I couldn't get much better detail from the SC.
  13. Unable to Fast Charge (Level 3)

    I just posted this on a new post about my failed charging port experience: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/recent-service-charging-port-failed-truck-failed-to-shift-into-gear.9003/
  14. Recent Service: Charging Port failed - Truck Failed to Shift Into Gear

    Hi everyone, Now that I've gotten my truck back from service for over a week I wanted to tell a cautionary tail of what happened. TLDR: If the charging port on your truck is damaged, it may prevent you from shifting into gear (tow mode still works though). On Sunday 10/9 I went to an EA...
  15. PSA: Possible Major Security Issue With Rivian Alarm System

    Just wanted to update this as my truck was at the service center for a couple other issues and they investigated this more and found the issue. TLDR: If you have a carseat buckled into the truck, the alarm won't go off. They are going to request a software update to fix it. Here is the...
  16. How prevalent are these issues?

    At 6000 miles my vin 17xx had a front drive unit failure and is currently in the service center. Ironically my tonneau has been fine, loud, but has never broken.
  17. Ask us Rivian R1T owners ANYTHING [AMA]!

    You can, just jerk the wheel a bit. Auto steer will be off but ACC will still be on
  18. ⚠️ Rivian Recall: insufficiently torqued front upper control arm & steering knuckle fastener [official torque value = 90 lb-ft / 122 Nm]

    Yup, got it, plan on adding it to the long list of things already happening to my truck at the service center.
