I started from the garage this morning and warmed the cab prior to departure. I expected the range hit as it was bout 5 degrees out, but I didn’t expect not to be able keep the interior warm.
The climate system simply couldn’t overcome the cold outside. It was blowing warm air at best. I had...
I've activated my Tidal membership for evaluation purposes. I do like the interface a great deal. I like having a slider to scrub forward or backward in a song - didn't have that with my iPhone connected via Bluetooth.
1) I haven't used it enough to determine if I will keep it, but I have a...
I've owned the truck since Sept, and I have come to the conclusion that those hooks are nearly useless. One hanger at best - hanging awkwardly.
I've been able to hang a jacket there over the hook using the fabric hook inside the collar, but that is all. Much easier to simply throw it on the...
Hopefully, the forthcoming update will not have any negative bugs that affect vehicle systems just before the holiday road tripping that will likely be part of visiting relatives - many of which are excited to see Rivians.
There is a big risk to pushing an update out just as we all scramble...
Kneel mode appears to still be working when I park around town or in the garage. I haven’t had an occasion to park on an incline yet, but it is interesting as I thought that it didn’t do it once. For some reason I assumed I opened the door too soon. I’ll have to keep an eye out.
My discussion with the Rivian Service lead me to believe that it hasn’t been rolled out yet to all chargers. Not sure what the hold up is, but mine hasn’t updated from Ver 3.00.30 since I got it. It’s been connected to wifi since the 1st of September. I guess it doesn’t “check for an available...
They did open a ticket for me. I told them that I mostly stream from the phone and FM wasn’t a high priority, but they are opening a ticket and letting me have the option to time a repair after they get back to me with a solution.
In just completed the install of 2022.43.2. The seat feature worked. I was able to set it, but I did get the a driver + error notification that I’ve never had before. Driver + worked perfectly on the way home this evening before the update. The update did not fit the radio that will still not...
I bet I could walk out to my truck right now and find 2 or 3 giant vehicles which have never been cared for, washed, or repaired after accidents, parked right next to me. It's just in some people's nature to do that herd thing. There is a heavy gravitational force in parking lots, and all the...
Mercedes called theirs "MB Tex" as it is a textile, not leather. It was a vinyl that held up better than the leather inserts for their seating surfaces. I quickly banned anyone from entering my car that had bedazzled jean pockets - Good grief those fake studded pockets could scratch and rip...
So the final report is that the flutter has been greatly reduced.
It is still present at speeds over 75 mph, but the adjustment of the hood seems to have made it better/ lessor. The deformed appearance around the hood badge at high speeds Is still present.
Everything returns to normal at...
