  1. My Rivian completely dead from ~40% vampire drain after a month long vacation

    Don't pay it man! Fight like hell. Tell them there is no warning as to the maintenance of the vehicle's battery and word of mouth does not count. It should not become the norm to dump software problems onto the consumer
  2. 50 Miles of Extra Range For $10,000?

    The R1S was available with the max pack at one point and got removed along with the Explorer trim. It's strange that Rivian is allowing all pre march orders to buy accessories and change configurations without any price hike but is not being very clear that that doesn't apply to one or two...
  3. PC MAG: Rivian, Tesla, and Ford are embracing LFP batteries...customers aren't told which type they're getting

    I did not know this. If that is the case, then why would anyone get the large battery pack? How often would you need that extra 30% that you would spend an extra 6k. If you need extra range, might as well go with the max pack but if you don't, take the standard. The large pack seems like a...
  4. Are these panel gaps acceptable?

    I doubt it. If they keep delivering these cosmetic issues, the line to the SC will get longer and longer. Now the customer has to decide if they want to wait 45 days to have issues fixed or live with it and many will live with it. This "within spec" is wack But if competition ramps up with...
  5. RJ shows "Ramping production of our new [Dual-Motor R1] Enduro drive unit"

    That's what I'm saying! If even 1% of new cars delivered need to be serviced within the first 3 months, the SC will be overwhelmed which is what is happening (based on reported SC backlog). If Rivian was producing vehicles that needed no service at all in the first 3 years, it would be fine...
  6. Rivian Responds : Some Dual Motor Configuration News

    Yeah I get that but it was disclosed in a reddit post rather than an email or on their website. I don't see how they can do that without really properly telling people. On top of that, it seems like everything else (accessories, configurations, etc) pre March holders are able to makes changes...
  7. Rivian Responds : Some Dual Motor Configuration News

    How binding is this Reddit information? I don't recall them ever saying anything about changing your pre-March configuration would be a problem. For them to say that changes are subjected to higher prices and not reversible in a reddit post and not anywhere doesn't make sense. I thought people...
  8. I've given up

    I think that they will/should only include the dual motor for the people who are forced to have dual motors because they cancelled the max pack + quad motor. So I'm in that camp and I'll be getting the dual motor + max pack. Rivian is just driving people crazy with these estimated delivery...
  9. I've given up

    Yeah their strategy to over promise and under delivery is very consistent lol. But their numbers and estimated delivery doesn't seem to make sense. They had about 71K orders as of december 15th 2021. With 25K produced at the end of 2022, they should be able to get through the rest of the...
  10. Ready for delivery, but won't let me see/drive before purchase.

    They don't want a back and forth before delivery because they want the delivered metric to be higher. Tesla created this stupid process where the vehicle is "to spec" off the production line and deliver them as quickly as possible. This inflates their delivery numbers as the delivered count is...
  11. Rivian E-Bike is Coming. RJ Tells Staff Electric Bike in Development

    Yeah I think with all the problems they are having with ramping up production, they should focus their resources and time on fixing those things. If they want to work on extras, work on the tonneau cover, adventure network, etc literally anything besides adding more problems to the pile of...
  12. "Rivian orders placed after 20% price hike appear to jump the line"

    I'm not in a hurry to get my pre-order but I will say when it was very evident that the youtubers/influencers jumped the line, I considered sending a demand letter. Everyone supports Rivian by default because who's going to maintenance our cars if they're dead. Even so, they could at least do...
  13. Rivian Membership..... It's January 16 so.......

    Maybe update your Rivian app to see if you purchase through there?
  14. Good idea to opt out of force Arbitration and waive Class Action right

    Yes it's available in every state. The downside is that if you sue, no one else with the same problem can join your lawsuit and when it is resolved in arbitration, no one will know the outcome unless it's dismissed. This also holds true in that you won't know other people's lawsuit outsome. Plus...
  15. Picked up new R1T Ocean Coast today - some small Issues

    You can opt out of the forced arbitration if you email them within 30 days. Look up the rivian legal terms
  16. Good idea to opt out of force Arbitration and waive Class Action right

    When you sign the purchasing agreement or preorder agreement, we are given 30 days to opt out of the dispute resolution process which includes not having to go through arbitration or waiving class action. How many people do this considering every now and then there is a post on this forum where...
