Avoid Francis Energy charger in Elephant Butte (Truth or Consequences), NM. Chargers are up, but will not start charge (Communication Error). I tried both chargers, same problem. Called support, no help. He said maybe I should not open and/or close the doors while starting a charge and to make...
While towing a Basecamp, Rivian normally displays a flatbed trailer ever since i got my 2025 R1T in March. After about 150 miles towing on the highway it is displaying something totally different. I did eventually revert back to the flatbed, but with a small shadowy extension off the back.
Gen 1 key fob (2024 and older R1T/R1S). Will not work with Gen 2 (2025). Never used. Reason for selling, purchased a 2025. Asking $200 OBO. Buyer pays shipping.
Perhaps Rivian should start a charging plan like Tesla and EA. Monthly fee, cancel anytime for a better rate. I use Tesla's plan for long road trips. At least a $0.10/kWh discount.
HVAC cooling is very erratic after last update. Cools fine (freon level must be OK), but if you adjust the temperature on drivers or passenger side by 1-3 degrees the R1T blows hot air and does not stop blowing hot air until you turn HVAC off and on. What is strange is the HVAC screen indicates...
Test drove the Gen 2 R1T DM Max with all terrain tires. Ride was slightly better than mine with all seasons. Less suspension clunk on rough roads. Door ‘thunk’ is much better on the Gen 1 in my opinion. Rivian should have moved the emergency door release in the Gen 2 as I kept opening the door...
Have a 2023 R1T Dual Max. Purchased in May 2024. Is it worth trading for the better tech? Is the ride any better? ANY input would be helpful. Could get $4500 (plus more according to sales person) and 1.99% (60 months) on R1T Dual Max with Performance upgrade. Discounts would cancel the upgrade...
Ever since the latest update, my HVAC has been really wacky. It’s either too hot or it’s too cold. Setting temp to 70 and it’s too hot. Setting temp to 78 and it barely blows warm air. Did soft reset and hard reset twice. Works for a while, but goes back to being wacky. Gen 1 R1T.
I have hearing aids and I cannot go much above 2-3, else my ears bleed. Volume sensitivity sucks. Turned off Dynamic Sound Adjustment off as volume at a stop light was too low at my standard sound setting. Constantly adjusting volume using radio or Apple Music. Rivian is going all in on autonomy...
Eyes off in 2026? Therefore LiDAR added in 2026? Current Gen 2 hardware future proof?? This is like Tesla's version of future proofing. Coming from one who owns a Gen 3 HW Tesla and bought FSD.
