I have a 2023 R1S Quad with 20 AT tires and my best range is 275 miles. That is NOT conserve mode but standard mode. My understanding is that using conserve mode that much will ruin the tires. Is that not true so I dont understand why you are using conserve mode to compare. The 20“AT are a very...
The lamp example is good but how about a toaster which is a very high draw item……if it is plugged in all week, no current or voltage will be applied until it is turned on (given a command) JB
I am just joining this message so forgive any repeat but Beatle, doesn’t the car have to have “some” command to charge?? My understanding is you can have the charger plugged in but NOTHING happens until you give it a command like the charging limits set? If you have 85% set as a limit, once it...
They need to start working on weekends!!!! They simply do not have that luxury……for 10 years, I picked up or had repairers done on my Chevy Volt on weekends. They will never catch up if they dont!!
I concur…….had Alexa not working, map blurry, cant use the phone as a key, lane assist would not work and a few other annoying but not serious items. Took 3 months to get an appt and then 2 days before, they said it had to be pushed back 6 weeks. argh. Then they kept the car for a week when it...
The service is the achilles heel of Rivian…sadly. They need to start working on the weeknd’s or they will never catch up. They simply dont have that luxury when we the owners are forced to wait months for an appt and then go weeks without the car.
There is one major concern: vehicle repair service. I waited 3 months for an appt and then 2 days before the appt, they pushed it back another month..ouch. I bring it in and all went but they said it will be a week for the repairs as they dont work on the weekends!!! What in the world! They are...
I have been vacationing in Sunriver and Bend, Oregon for over 30 years. It is an outdoor mecca with any activity you want including excellent and very scenic off roading. Had tons of fun with my Jeep there over the years and now my R1S.
All valid points especially the service syndrome as it is horrible. To me, the only real bad thing about owning Rivian but it is bad. They should have opened up more service centers before they sold so many cars.
I have had Alexa work about 5 days in one year of ownership…worthless. NOTHING compares to Apple Car play and its consistent and safety abilities. YES, I said that!! )))
It IS a big deal but I accept that it will never happen due to Amazon owning so much of Rivian. I leased a Chevy Volt for 10 years and carplay offered seemless and very accurate nav and effortless HANDS FREE communication which is a safety feature not just a convenience. IT IS a huge void but I...
It is a wide car for sure and a bit annoying when parking in public places. The cameras help but parking my Chevy Volt was a non-event compared to parking the R1S. It is a very deliberate and mindful task.
Probably the TCM, Telecommunications Control Module. When this module isn’t working it wreaks havoc with many systems. In one year of ownership, we have had Alexa work only a day at a time for 10 days. We gave up. The map is cloudy also and it doesn’t know its position many times so the cruise...
Don’t need the sales part……just the service to prevent getting scheduled 4 months out for repairs and then get canceled and delayed another month. This is deplorable for a $30K car much less a $100K vehicle.
That is horrible and unacceptable. Don’t blame you. I hope VW starts to allow service calls at their dealers as it is long overdue. Service iis the very worst thing about Rivian (even worse than no car play or full size spare on the R1S))) Best of luck, JB
