Happy Spring Solstice!
Unfortunately, I backed into a concrete overhang (I am so mad with myself) this morning and got an 24 or so inch wide, 2 inch tall dent with some deep scratches along the top of my tailgate (see hopefully attached image). Anyone have an idea how much a repair would be...
Iāve got an appointment for this as well as a few other things later this week. My āwearā is not the piping but the vegan leather. Iāve had my R1T just under 3 years. Iāve never had a vehicleās seat wear like this. Itās not covered by warranty and would cost a little over $1,000 to replace which...
My R1T turtled back in 2023 and after their first attempt to fix it, it turtled as soon as I pulled into my driveway. I turned around and drove it right back. It turned out to be a module which they replaced and it hasnāt been an issue since. Though I suspect my front tires took a hit being in...
I do this for my home and when we spend a week or more out of town and even with the key fob, I have to press it multiple times to unlock.
That said, I understand Rivian is still working to resolve these issues while also trying to develop new features. Just this month or so, Iām finding more...
I always have my key fob, always in my right front pocket, and my Gen 1 R1T always makes me wait. I hesitate to take it out of my pocket for a second or two, pull the fob out and just before I hit unlock, it will sometimes unlock. This is usually 10 seconds, every time. Itās pretty frustrating.
Is there any concern about fuel breaking down if not used within 6-9 months? I can imagine first time EV buyers that get the fuel backup option and then donāt use it because most people donāt drive that much? This isnāt to suggest itās a bad option to offer. Itās great for those that tow or...
If water is your concern, I recommend the LOMAX or WeatherTech one (though I have zero experience with the Rivian one). I had a LOMAX on my previous truck, an F-150, the joints are sealed with pretty solid weather stripping. Drawbacks are unless you remove the whole cover, you can only uncover...
My R1T has been in the service center for two weeks now so Iāve had a Jeep Wagoneer for a rental and it comes with CarPlay. After finally getting to play with and learn CarPlay, I have to say that CarPlay is a huge NO for me. I significantly prefer the maps that Rivian provides and just use Waze...
I noticed it gets hot in there as well. We go out on day trips with our little ones frequently and we pack lunches, drinks and juice boxes in a Yeti backpack and I put it in the frunk sitting on top of extra insulation to reduce the thermal transfer. It works. Also do the same when we drive 2.5...
Iāve had the same issue, my wife is about 115-120 lbs though. I complained about a year ago and they asked about weight. I donāt think they made any adjustments. I have to pay more attention to this again, I donāt know if itās happened lately.
Hey Riviot! I had an intermittent āsuspensionā issue last year and after my first visit to the service center (and the worst rental car ever), it came back as soon as I got home. I called and dropped my R1T off again and they found that the problem was the āVehicle Dynamicsā module. They...
Iāve had my R1T since Nov ā22 and recently found that the air compressor shuts off after after its initial charge. If Iām using it to fill my tires, I have to wake it up after every tire to recharge it. Iāve also used it for framing a wall and I have to constantly walk out to wake it to recharge...
This has recently started for me as well (within the past week or two) while reversing from park after sitting for a several hours. Today it is rainy, Iāll try to track weather but Iām pretty sure it was dry when it happened earlier this week. Iāll also submit a ticket so Rivian knows because I...
Given the hump seen in the rear of the covered sneak peak and the hump in the rear on the patent image, I suspect this is a likely representation of the R2S (ārepresentationā because look at the R1T in the patent image, itās somewhat rounded in areas that are definitely straight).
Also, I...
There was a thread on this a couple weeks ago and I pulled out my thermal camera and it showed that the air coming out of the vent was mid 80s at the hottest and posted that on here. Most other cars push out air over 100 degrees (F). This was on High. It does feel warmer when my R1T is stopped...
