Picked up “Purple People Eater” today. Bittersweet also giving up “Spicy Mustard”, and the funny looks from my wife when I brought a purple SUV home (she didn’t know the color choice). The San Diego SC was up in arms about a compass yellow R1T next to a Borealis R1S, so that was fun. They took...

I’m trading in my Compass Yellow R1T for a Borealis R1S. Should be here next week. The SD service center said it’s the first in the area. I can confidently say I’ll still be able to pick out my vehicle in a sea of gray in parking lots, though maybe a bit less than my R1T.

Do you by chance have a Dual Motor? I wonder if Dual Motor variants need the performance upgrade to see 100%? *EDIT*: Nevermind, I should have read your post more carefully. You have the Quad motor :)

Thanks for the suggestion. I ended up chatting with an agent and they are having me drop off the vehicle at the local service center tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed it’s just a SW thing and nothing mechanical. It was a wet weekend and I wonder if water got into a wire harness or the motor...

For what it's worth (not much) my R1T started having this issue after arriving home yesterday. Charge port won't open from the dash UI or from the external touch sense interface. Tried a hard reset last night, and a soft reset this morning without success. The dash UI does go through its little...

@jeffsolarspies , not that this helps your situation, but I was trying to return an unopened wall charger for over 3 months, and I kept getting told by CS and my Guide that there were "internal changes" happening and bear with them. I ended up just selling it locally.

I’m sure they get banged up in there, but it keeps them scrappy!

I like to live dangerously, so I charge to 11%. Plus, the truck is lighter and more sporty with less electron baggage to weigh it down!

Unless you are far away from a service center, I’d just add it to a list of ongoing items you may want fixed (if anything it helps Rivian collect feedback on things they may need to improve inspection or assembly tolerance on.) For me, while the issue was cosmetic, it was one of those things...

Got my truck back on Friday; issue is fixed! Service center replaced the liner and windshield as part of the process. I noticed that the passenger side windshield wiper wasn’t working after pick up. Good thing I had one of those bolt-tightener thingies (I think they are called wrenches) in the...

Quick update: Truck is still at the service center. They had to take the windshield off, and *weld* a seam together along the A pillar due to poor assembly at the factory.

?‍♂️

My R1T is at the service center for a number of this, including this. We'll see if they can address it.

Has Rivian stated that each motor is essentially an even divisor from the total output power when all motors are engaged? Wondering if the battery/inverters/drive system is limited to a certain total output power (~840hp) rather than each individual motor. For example, maybe each motor is...

Nope and nope, but I don't know what was done with the vehicle before purchase (new).

I've noticed that the interior liner on the passenger side A-pillar is revealing body-colored framing between the liner and the windshield. Normally this wouldn't be an issue, but I see it every time I look at the A pillar (sort of a "can't unsee once seen" things). I've decided to add it to my...

I have this as well; Builtright + 2x Ride88 racks. So far no issues, but I am bummed about the tailgate needing to be down (and the poor backup visibility).

@HAL9000 - I'm trying to visualize how to get the bike on/off the rack; do you have to lift it over the quarter panel directly onto the rack? Also, does the rack open past 90 degrees to allow for more freedom while loading/unloading (in one of your pictures it seems that is a yes)?

My guess is that many peripherals are designed to work off 12V (not 400V+ of the HV batteries). Perhaps it's cheaper (or more efficient) to have onboard 12V chargers rather than step-down regulators that supply 12V directly from the HV battery. Or, it's possible that the 12V system needs to stay...

This part needs less holes!
