  1. Is this normal (re air suspension/compressor)

    Hi everyone. Three weeks after getting our R1S in September, our air suspension system completely collapsed, rendering the car un-driveable. Rivian pretty quickly fixed/replaced the suspension and the air compressor, and the R1S has been driving really well since then. However, I am starting...
  2. Massive decline in mileage

    To the OP, what height are you usually driving at? We originally were driving primarily in All-Purpose - Standard height, and we found that our efficiency/range increased materially when we changed to either All Purpose - Auto our All-Pupose - Low (Auto keeps the height at Standard for city...
  3. R1S trip to Lake Tahoe

    Speaking of trips to Tahoe from the Bay Area (I'm in Marin), the Truckee RAN obviously serves the North shore well, but what about S. Lake Tahoe? My family and I are taking our first road trip in our R1S next month to Heavenly, and yesterday I was looking into the charging infrastructure on the...
  4. Rear cargo liner for R1S?

    I put in Canvasback's product on a) the back of the second row seats, b) the back of the third row seats, c) the far back cargo area and d) the back of the tailgate, and I couldn't be happier with the fit and utility of the cargo liner. Highly recommended.
  5. Snow Mode / Regenerative Brake Assist observation

    I'm reading the email that I just got from Rivian regarding the Regenerative Brake Assist in this latest software update 2023.50, and I'm wondering how it will impact an upcoming mountain ski trip. The email partially states: "With this feature enabled, if the accelerator pedal is released when...
  6. What do you want addressed in the next OTA update?

    Being able to use specific Spotify accounts depending on who is driving. When my wife is the driver, she uses her Spotify account. When I'm driving, I use mine.
  7. A moment to appreciate... the Frunk

    I love our frunk! My wife kids me about it, saying that I'm constantly looking for opportunities to put stuff in the frunk, when I could have just as easily put the stuff on the back seat. My biggest complaint about the frunk: That the Alexa command to open it is not, "Open the Frunk!!!" but...
  8. Half of Ford's dealers still don't want to sell electric cars and trucks

    I work for a bank, spending my career in wholesale lending (i.e., lending money to businesses). I've moved around between many different niches in lending, and for 4 years last decade, I was involved in floorpan lending to auto dealerships (i.e., financing their new vehicle inventory). So, I...
  9. Interior lights on in park

    Easy. Put your Rivian in park, select the Vehicle app, tap on the Cabin Lights button to turn the cabin lights off, and have fun.
  10. Corte Madera RAN open now

    I was there this afternoon. There are six RAN Level 3's and four Waypoint Level 2's, all right next to each other. It was my first experience with a L3 charge. Man, that was quick (at least relative to my L2 at home!).
  11. A good Service Center Experience on a major issue (R1S was undriveable)

    We picked up our R1S from the South San Francisco SC on Sept. 16th. Driving home that day, the air suspension seemed extremely noisy. Was this normal, we wondered? We soon found that it likely wasn't (you could hear the sound of air being released in Kneel Mode from 100 yards away). We got a...
  12. R1S been in shop for 1 week - no updates from Rivian Service

    My R1S was towed into a SC on Monday, albeit with a service date of November 30th. That being said, after reading this thread a few days ago, I thought it was a brilliant idea to check the location of my R1S. The past two days, it was pretty clear that the R1S was in the SC's parking lot, but...
  13. Rivian CEO Doesn’t Think There's Much Customer Overlap Between Cybertruck and R1T [Video]

    Brian: I couldn't agree with you more. A small part of me hopes that the Cybertruck is an abject failure, simply because in my view it's so ugly, and I really dislike Elon and in particular what he's done with Twitter. But ya gotta give Elon credit, the mad genius that he is, for what he's...
  14. The Review Your Service Loaner Vehicle thread!

    It's sad that this thread even has to exist. My service loaner - a Toyota 4Runner - just doesn't compare to the R1S. Unfortunately, it looks like I'll be in the 4Runner for a total of about 6 weeks (I've got 5 more weeks to go), unless Rivian repairs my failed air suspension earlier than they...
  15. Air Suspension Failure / Malfunction

    Thanks for your comments! The mobile technician that I worked with was very proactive, contacting me three separate times this morning. In his last call, he told me that he just finished inputting all of his field notes, that he had gotten nowhere with his back channel service center contacts...
  16. Forest Green R1S - How many of us are there?

    Forest Green with BM/DWA interior here! The FG color choice was an absolute no brainer for my wife and I. We think it's beautiful.
  17. Air Suspension Failure / Malfunction

    We picked up our R1S a little over a month ago, on September 16th. We've loved the car so far, except for one critical issue. On the drive home from picking the R1S up, we noticed that when the air suspension adjusted the ride height, there was an extremely loud swoosh/whoosh/hiss sound that...
  18. Sneak peek of Halloween Mode 2023

    Seriously?! Thanks! It would have been nice if the release notes would have mentioned that fact! Instead, I wasted a half hour of time tonight scratching my head and wondering what was wrong.
  19. Sneak peek of Halloween Mode 2023

    What am I missing? I successfully updated to 2023.28.0, as you can see on the picture I took of my Settings app, but I can't find how to access Halloween mode. The OP is showing a picture of a Settings app from Twitter, in which the last bottom item in the menu to the left is Halloween (right...
