Long story short: there are 10–20 round candies stuck inside the rear air vents, they roll back and forth through the air ducts when I drive, and it's making me insane. How do I start disassembling the floor of my 1st-gen R1T to get at these? Slightly longer version: I live in the mountains and...

I've had my gen1 R1T for 3 years now, with it being my daily driver. I'm used to how it drives. A couple weeks ago there was a noticeable change in the steering in the middle of a drive that felt wrong, and persisted for 5 days…and then got better on its own. The steering felt totally normal at...

In case it helps someone, here’s what my 2022 R1T looks like with 1/4 cord of firewood loaded in it. I built “wall” pieces at the edges because I thought it would be a little more full and had to travel on a highway for a bit. Was maybe unnecessary.

1st gen Quad-Motor R1T, driving up a steep, paved mountain road during heavy snow storm. I'm in Snow mode, with traction control on. Wearing Toyo Open Country AT/III from last season; tread is a bit low, but not useless. Cars ahead are stopped in the middle of the road with hazards on, in a...

I occasionally have wanted to use my R1T's air compressor on things that are farther than I can reach with the hose that came with the car. (I have to back my truck right up to my wife's SUV's bumper to fill her tires, and then try to operate the air hose with the tailgate up. I cannot reach the...

Bought 8 of these tie-downs to add to the bed (same price on Amazon). I took a few pictures to share because I could not tell from the website how far they protruded. Installation was simple: Use two small flathead screwdrivers to pop off the plastic cap at each spot. (Work around the edge to...

After work last week—when it was 28°F outside—I took my dirty R1T to a self car wash (pressure washers with various ingredients). I jacked the truck up to Highest setting and in addition to cleaning the rest of the exterior I somewhat sprayed the underside, and sprayed inside the wheels and...

A few weeks ago I closed my tailgate bed and the truck reported it wasn't closed. After a few open/hard closings it finally registered as closed. This cycle of opening/closing worked for a week; after that I couldn't get it to register the tailgate as closed. FYI rebooting the vehicle did not...

Yesterday morning and this morning I've used the app to start pre-heating the truck, walked out with my phone, the doors have unlocked due to Bluetooth, I've entered the truck, put my foot on the brake, pushed the lever to attempt to go into reverse...and gotten this message: I'm playing music...

Four+ years ago CleanTechnica posted an article showing some great graphs from some great data garnered by ABRP on Tesla performance at different speeds and temperatures. It includes the following two graphs, showing that the ideal speed--to get maximum range--for the Model S100 is about 35 MPH...

Left my truck parked at the Denver airport last week. When I got back it was 10°F and covered in snow and ice. Unlocked the truck, wife and kids and I opened all doors and got in. Wife got back out (front passenger side) to wipe snow off the windshield and when she got back in, the door wouldn't...

"Hey Siri, how much is a kilogram of gold worth?" "Sorry, I can't search the web on iPhone." ... What? Yes you can. You do it for me all the time. This only happens when I'm driving my Rivian. Apparently this is a new change in iOS 16 (with a TERRIBLE, incorrect response), where if Siri thinks...

I live a ~mile up a steep mountain road (average grade about 13%, some sections around 20%). With an ICE car it is imperative to use lower gears to save brake pads over time. When I leave home in the morning, with regen braking set to "High", I get about 2,000' along and 300' descent down the...

My "Vent Windows" button in the mobile app has been offline for about a week now. Shows only "Close Windows" button highlighted, whether the windows are open or closed. Tapping the button shows, "Connecting...", "Closing..."—at this point it will close the windows if they were open—it continues...

Manual says, “Open the Rivian app on your phone. […] Open Account menu and choose Add a Rivian Product.” My Rivian app shows version 1.6.0 and does not have this option. Anyone else with the Rivian charger gotten it on the Wi-Fi for firmware updates and sweet, sweet stats?

I used the Rivian app to report 3 issues 14 days ago, and since then have reported a few more. (Seatbelt installed backwards, panel misalignment, powered tonneau cover acting flaky, and then later fully broken down, broken plastic wrap around beneath passenger seat, hotspot stopped working, …)...

I have driven Wranglers since I was 12 (driving only in private areas) and have owned Jeeps all my life. I love the Jeep Wave, the camaraderie among Jeep owners. Now that I'm driving my R1T daily, I feel a similar kinship with Rivian owners (whom I am seeing more and more!). I glimpse another...

I've been driving my R1T for 3 weeks now, and have been keeping track of things I'd like to see changed. Most are software and UI things that could be fixed, but there are a few hardware changes that I'm recording in case someone from Rivian sees the list and is interested in my opinion. :p The...

Anyone successfully, cleanly, and without damage removed the obnoxious stickers from the visors? If so, how did you do it?

R1T goes fast. Fast equals fun. But fast also equals bug splatter on windshield. Now that I don't have to visit a gas station every week, I need a way to clean my windshield at home. Any recommendations on a "gas station squeegee" for quickly and easily scrubbing clear the windshield, holding...
