  1. Clunking sound from front end.

    My 35xx R1S is in the shop right now for a couple of minor issues, and I asked them to check the suspension because I have been noticing a lot more noise, especially over dips/bumps. Unfortunately, I could not drop the vehicle off because of my work schedule, so the wife had to take it. They...
  2. Gen 2 Critical Battery Issue

    They may or may not give you a Rivian loaner, but they will set you up with a rental otherwise. They ordered me a Lyft to Enterprise when mine was in for service.
  3. Gen 2 Critical Battery Issue

    Very unfortunate. My Gen 1, with over 21k miles, gave me a warning for the first time on Saturday right after I unplugged from an EVgo DCFC. Thankfully, after a hard reset it didn't come back. My understanding is that usually for many of these types of things, if they are going to fail, they...
  4. CCS appears to be better than NACS..should R2 stay CCS?

    I am not an expert on the matter, but I remember reading something about the voltage that Tesla Superchargers run on making them less expensive to install, due to not needing the same transformers as DCFC. I'm not sure if this is unique to Tesla Superchargers or applies to all NACS type fast...
  5. Michigan Rivian Club

    I'm 35xx R1S and still nothing but the initial email.
  6. R1S demand slowing down?

    I think some of the issue is that people still have no idea that Rivian exists. Here in SW Michigan, there are maybe ~5 Rivian vehicles in my medium/large sized town(350k+), and I get questions all the time when I am out. "How do you say that?" "Who makes that?" "What kind of car is that?" And...
  7. Truck not charging when plugged in

    I've had the same issue. Power cycling the charger fixes it. It is definitely annoying since mine is set to charge overnight and I have woken up to a nearly depleted battery when I was expecting to take the truck to run a full day of errands. I haven't troubleshooted beyond that though. Last...
  8. New Rivian Service Centers coming or proposed?

    I heard Caledonia(Grand Rapids), Michigan is coming online in January or February.
  9. Service Expierence (Madison Heights)

    I am in Kalamazoo. It's like 140ish miles. Which, with traffic, is 2.5 hours. I'm basically right in-between Chicago and Madison Heights, but Chicago has worse traffic and longer wait times for service. Honestly, the first time I got service, while not ideal, wasn't bad. They had my R1S for 3...
  10. Service Expierence (Madison Heights)

    I drove 5 hours round trip to Madison Heights for them to tell me that the issue I was having(creasing on the rear doors of my R1S) is normal and expected because of how the glue is applied for the seal. Now, I'm not saying it was Madison Height's fault, but what is the point of sending pics and...
  11. 20" Michelin Defender LTX Platinum Tires review -- For all of you thinking about a 20" tire! Your wait is over!

    So, just adding a rumor to the mill. I was at the service center today, and one of the employees was saying that Rivian is working with pirelli to update/ replace the current offerings, specifically the 20s. He said the compound would be different, and would be less noisy at later life stages...
  12. Mixed feelings about latest service appointment

    I took my R1S in for service recently. Mainly, I had the taillight recall, and an issue with the front trunk sensor causing it to not close automatically, and an electrical gremlin that turns on my dome light randomly. Since the service center closest to me is a 2+ hour drive, I asked them to...
  13. Chicago Rivian Enthusiasts

    Well, I'm not in Chicago, but there aren't too many of us in SW Michigan yet. So here I am. Hello from Kalamazoo. Got my R1S in January 2023.
  14. First R1S problem so far -- low pressure windshield fluid

    I think the ride is great. I have the A/T 20s, so there is a little bounce, but it's a truck after all. Handles corners well, very responsive steering. No complaints here.
  15. First R1S problem so far -- low pressure windshield fluid

    I had this problem when I picked mine up last week: it just dribbled out, more of a spurt than a spray. Check for a kink where the hose runs from the body to the hood. It took a little tugging to situate right and not allow it to kink anymore. It has been much better since I did this, though...
  16. R1S Forest Edge delivered with wood headrest surround removed.

    I put in a ticket saying the trim panel was incorrect. They basically said it's going to be black now. Tough luck. I'm quite disappointed with that. It looks cheap imo.
  17. NEW - RIVIPARTS Left Side Phone Mount

    Great, I just ordered the original, and already have a ram mount, but I like that the left side doesn't obscure the screen/is not obscured by the steering wheel. I'll keep an eye out for it. Thanks.
  18. NEW - RIVIPARTS Left Side Phone Mount

    Is this going to be available in a 1" version?
  19. Delivery appointments not available?

    It was weird. When he called he offered me tomorrow(Friday) or Saturday and multiple times, so it doesn't make sense that they didn't populate. I think they even tried retracting step 8 and reinitializing because I got a second "Time to Schedule" email. Anyhow, I'm glad they were able to get it...
  20. Delivery appointments not available?

    Service center called. Offered me delivery tomorrow! Eek! He seemed just as confused as to why only two days were populating for me.
