  1. Saltwater submerged EV (Tesla) fires.

    I'm aware of the Davis island house , there was another Tesla parked outside nearby that burned and there's a video from a garage cam of a Tesla and it was obvious that the fire started from the lower part of the car. I'm not saying that all EVs are just going to burst into flames but there...
  2. Saltwater submerged EV (Tesla) fires.

    I'm sure the recent EV fires in the Tampa Bay area are making the news after hurricane Helene submerged many coastal homes. So sad to see the devastation. We are very fortunate (lucky) since our home is on the Anclote River that backed up due to storm surge and only inches away from entering...
  3. 3rd row seat flap

    The springs on mine broke off. Looks to be a plastic welded part that's the weak link and it breaks off and it and spring fall into the void. I'd blame our toddler but I'd rather put the blame on Rivian. ;)
  4. R1S loaner won’t go over 80 mph, shows “80 mph max” on screen.

    Rivian also locks their own R1T service trucks to 80 mph.
  5. Rear Wiper Blade Service

    Not sure if all R1S rear wiper arms are the same or not. In my case the trico did not fit. (2023 April build date R1S ) The Rivian rear wiper arm has a tab and the wiper blade assembly has a matching slot. The trico does NOT have the slot. Rivian on left. Trico on right.
  6. R1S 7500K Mile Scheduled Service includes what?

    What was the reason that you couldn't have the tires rotated at your home? Paver/brick driveway? Slope/grade of driveway too steep?
  7. Does anyone else hate Gary?

    Well...just think of how embarrassing it would be if we all had rubber duckies everywhere instead of Gary!!! ?
  8. Missing underbody torx screws

    Mine were all there before a recent service visit that required the lower panel to be removed. Now post service 4 are missing. ? Wonder how many happened to disappear on the tech's tool cart?
  9. Front camera should come on when sensor is triggered?

    Our Garage is tight and as a work around I created a routine "When I arrive home in the Rivian", "Alexa turn on the camera". When I approach the garage I hear Alexa say "OK" and the front camera turns on. There should be detailed instructions in a previous post on the forum.
  10. R3 + R3X Colors Previews ?

    ? How's this for a match!! On display at a museum in Belgium ?
  11. Leaking (hydraulic?) fluid above rear control arm pivot point.

    That's most definitely a hydraulic suspension leak. I don't have any warning lights or driveability issues. Hope yours is an easy fix! Mine is more inboard and below the drivers side rear motor. After a chat with a tech in Illinois he pretty much isolated the issue to either a loose...
  12. Leaking (hydraulic?) fluid above rear control arm pivot point.

    I was able to get under the car and made a video. I sent that to Rivian and they believe it's the drivers side rear motor that's leaking oil. CV is nice and dry and from what I can see without removing the lower cover panel the leak is directly below the drive motor.
  13. Leaking (hydraulic?) fluid above rear control arm pivot point.

    Recently noticed the garage floor seemed to have something oily that was under the driver's rear corner. I raised the suspension to it's highest level and found quite a bit of oily fluid that's been leaking and collecting dirt on the underside. Seems to originate above and drip down into the...
  14. Now Available: 2024.07.02 Software Update: Tesla Supercharger Access Coming Soon, Navigation Improvements, Room Entry And Exit Enhancements & More

    A software reset did the trick. Held the 2 outermost steering wheel buttons for 15 seconds and waited for the software to restart. Garage opener is now working correctly via drivers display and steering wheel.
  15. Now Available: 2024.07.02 Software Update: Tesla Supercharger Access Coming Soon, Navigation Improvements, Room Entry And Exit Enhancements & More

    Did anyone else loose the garage door button on their steering wheel after this update? I've used it daily and worked perfectly before this update. I did go to into the menu and remove the location associated with the garage and then added the location again. No luck. It correctly located...
  16. R2 Reservation List Tracker + Stats 📊

    Reserved this morning! 2 glove boxes, and a roll down rear window woohoo!! I haven't had a vehicle with those features since my '04 Land Rover Freelander SE3. :clap::like:
  17. You just bought a Fisker and then you see this!

    Nissan seems to be interested in Fisker's Alaska pickup platform. Supposedly thinking of handing $400m to Henrick
  18. NYT: Biden Calls Chinese Electric Vehicles a Security Threat

    I'm wondering how this will play out with the upcoming made in China Volvo EV30. Also from what I understand its UI is based on a Google OS. When I was in China a few years ago, of course everything Google was blocked. Gmail, Maps etc.
  19. Experience shopping for an EV9 vs R1S - Update

    The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. ?
  20. Experience shopping for an EV9 vs R1S - Update

    ....why not just keep the EQS? Is there something your wife doesn't like about it, or just bored with it? What are you really gaining on any trade?
