  1. “Waiting on Charger”

    25F Just a little worried because the very first time I charged away from home, 1 year ago, the L2 charger harness failed and needed a tow to service center. This is different as it affected L3 charging too.
  2. “Waiting on Charger”

    After leaving Gen 1 R1S at <15% charge for a few days charge was at 10% and battery 35F I went to charge. I plugged in at L2 but charging would not start. Message on screen “Waiting on Charger”. I then drove to a Tesla SC and plugged in with adapter. Charging started but stayed at 21kW even...
  3. Rivian, give me a SoC gauge option

    My driver display is set up to show percentage, but not to precision you are requesting from the battery symbol. I agree that Rivian could easily add an optional battery SOC symbol that you propose. However, I am not sure that it will allay the anxiety induced in a EV newb the first time they...
  4. No Longer Wish to Use Tesla Supercharger Network

    I’m not going to screw myself over by boycotting Tesla chargers in all scenarios, but yesterday I decided to continue to my destination without a DCFC top up at Tesla. A month ago I made the opposite decision. The reason is I do not approve of how Trump and DOGE are acting. I believe they are...
  5. Compact Spare Tire Installation

    Thanks That seems to be implied by Rivian as there are no warnings in Owner Guide.
  6. Compact Spare Tire Installation

    Has anyone had to use the compact spare? How was the experience? Is the spare compatible with all R1 tire sizes?
  7. 20" Inch Quad MPK Poll: 60 mph and 60°F

    You should change title to be very specific about the configuration that you want tested or do you not care where R1t or R1S?
  8. 2024 Honda Prologue: Honda’s new electric SUV is attractive and spacious. When can you get one?

    A $5k worth of Outback needing a $4k to $5.5 engine rebuild ( Seattle shop rates!). I was given $1.5k trade in. It will go to auction and an amateur mechanic will keep it alive. I don’t believe it will die yet.
  9. 2024 Honda Prologue: Honda’s new electric SUV is attractive and spacious. When can you get one?

    My Outback was dying, R2 not ready and good lease offer. Picked up a Prologue AWD EX to join the R1S and 2014 Volt today.
  10. Waiting a year and a half now - no "resume" for cruise. Seriously?

    In settings you can set cruise to be at speed limit when stalk is pushed down. That would give you what you want.
  11. Lte, gps, wifi are offline, and hard reset doesn’t work.

    If comm module the car should be safe to drive. Might be worth confirming part is at SC before dropping off.
  12. New Guy Range Issues - need some help

    I agree with everything said above. In winter I have noticed that it can take 20-30 minutes for the vehicle and battery to reach a steady temp and then the heating load reaches a minimum. When this happens you will see efficiency much closer to rated. Remember that the number in the driver...
  13. RJ, Rivian Service is Broken

    Alternative perspective. I have error message come up on dash of my Volt. Yesterday I called Chevy dealer and they offered me an appointment on Tuesday (2 business days wait). I expect them to service it straight away too.
  14. sssssllloooww UI, especially Nav

    I have noticed that zooming in Nav is jerky and often resets.
  15. Better than expected efficiency - rooftop box & ski rack on R1S (Gen 1)

    That’s good. Keeping to 65 max helps a lot and I think fast charging warms the battery and aids efficiency too. I did it without box or rack, but went up to 75 on freeway and made it from NW Seattle to Whistler (220 miles) with 20 miles left. I tried the new Tesla SC at Market Place, but...
  16. Brand New Single Motor R1S (big R1S fail)

    That sucks. As others have said, probably coupler on rear drive. I had similar symptoms in my Gen1 Quad and it was too much grease in halfshaft to motor joint. Either way, Rivian priorities these types of issues. You should get a rental or loaner on them. They will fix it soon.
  17. 7.5K Tire rotation and inspection cost breakdown ?

    7500 inspection is not free. I had one recently at $176 after taxes. They found issue with CV boot and replaced half-shaft under warranty. I get my tires rotated at Discount Tire for free.
  18. Clunking sound from front end.

    Vehicle towed back to Bellevue SC Update: Rivian say they packed too much grease in joint between half-shaft and motor, which caused over-pressure and the drivetrain computer to freak out. New half-shaft installed with correct amount of grease and so far so good.
