Ok what I'm seeing is... (used a bit of AI to consolidate some feedback from other forums as well) 1. Suspension & Drivetrain The most common area for major parts replacements. Many owners report a "looseness" or clunking over rough pavement, or a corner sagging after sitting for a few days...

Out of curiosity did you buy an extended warranty? After seeing how much some of these repairs cost I'm considering it.

Is this an 'automatic' repair that they are doing for all vehicles or do you have to flag it for them? Keep in mind I have an R1S not and R1T but I know mechanically they should be identical at least in this area.

I went in recently and got my seasonal tire changeover done at Les Schwab and they told me that they saw leaks on both front shocks. Not sure if it's the same issue you described but I flagged this for them.

Yes I was told that if I wanted an inspection it cost $250 so I went ahead and did that in the hopes that they will catch anything that I don't flag.

I've got about 400 miles before I hit the 60,000 mile warranty limit on my 2022 (early delivery) R1S launch edition. When I bring it in for service I want to get the service center to take a close look at areas that may require attention before the warranty expires. Reaching out to you long...

I tried redoing the whole Alexa setup, it worked once and then went right back to the old behavior. :(

This is interesting. I hadn't heard about this. At present this is a real detractor as I effectively don't have the ability to 'voice dial' to my contacts due to the issues I mentioned in the original thread. I do have Connect+ so I don't think that's the issue. Any other suggestions from...

I used to be able to go: Alexa - Call XYZ (where XYZ was the name of a contact in my phonebook) and it handled it pretty well. For the last couple of months it can't seem to do this anymore. I.e. It doesn't recognize the name from my phonebook. Feels like some integration issue has arisen...

From time to time I do outdoorsy type stuff and don't want to be bothered changing into clean clothes to drive the Rivian. Any recommendations for a utilitarian option for a seat cover for the R1S (Gen 1) Not looking for fancy style here, just functional.

Well the scroll wheel doesn't seem to do anything at all no matter if there is a car ahead or not

Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or whether there is a glitch in my ride. Trying to set follow distance in adaptive cruise control. I thought this was set by the right hand thumb wheel but when I spin that while in cruise control (either just cruise control or the other one that stays...

The climate controls were always a bit 'iffy' for us but since the most recent update it has basically moved to 'unusable'. There is very little correlation between what we are specifying in the climate controls and what is actually happening in the cabin. It's gotten to the point that we...

Thank you all for your helpful feedback.

Thanks much! I added one more photo after the original post with another plug, any thoughts on that other one?

I'm heading on a road trip to an area where access to chargers is pretty scarce. As such I need to make sure that I purchase the right adapters for the portable charging kit that comes with the Rivian. I have a bad track record of purchasing the wrong items in this area so would appreciate the...

So quick report back on this. Thanks to @electruck recommendation I went ahead an installed the TerrainContact HT's on my Rivian R1S. Overall really impressed so far and I've had them on for about a month. Initial observations... They actually seem quieter than my OEM tires were. Not sure...

Regardless of your political bent (each to his/her own I say) I think it's fair to say that a Trump win would probably be a significant headwind to EV adoption in the US. The polls I've seen suggest that this is a likely (though not certain) outcome in the Fall barring some unforeseen...

Read this the other day. FreeWire lays off everyone Taken together with Tesla's recent announcement... Tesla fires supercharger team It begins to paint a picture that I'm curious to get this forum's perspectives on. What's really behind this (if anything) and what does it mean for EV's? I...

I did end up going with your recommendation and got the tires put on today (my R1S was in the Rivian Service Center for a long time hence the delay) They seem smooth and quiet so far and I will report back on range if there are any marked differences. Thanks for the recommendation!
