I don't think I've had 34 different issues but I've had a few major ones that have left me stranded, some on road trips others closer to home. My dream car has turned out to be a nightmare. I thought I'd never say this but I can't wait to get rid of it. When it worked, I loved it, but can't...

I'm in the minority but with all the issues I've had with my 2022 R1T, it's a no. Been stranded on the road 3 times and each time the service experience has been bad. Timing of this thread is crazy as I was driving to the airport to catch an international flight and on the way the car went...

To put a pin in this thread - First - thanks to the recommendation for Electrafi and I'm now a subscriber. Since the replacement of the 12V batteries, I'm seeing vampire drain and wakes along the lines of what most are likely seeing. This includes parking at the airport 2 more times since the...

Yes, but very limited (4 by Chargepoint in the garage I was parked in) They are only for active charging where you get charged a parking fee after the end of a charging session and cars get towed if at the charger >48 hours.

There was some general references to some interactions with engineers looking at the logs, but no specifics. In any sort of service situation, people are dealing with a problem so we generally have a negative perspective from the get-go. I'm no different and I'm sure that bias is woven into the...

Yep - original. When I brought it in for a service bulletin issue in April, I asked about getting the 12v changed as I had heard about some proactive replacements going on. They said I didn't need a swap and my batteries were fine. Fast forward 4 months...

Latest update. SC called a few hours ago and said it's all fixed and to come pick it up. As I had asked to get some more details on what happened / root cause when I spoke with them yesterday, I expected (foolishly) that, in fact, there might be some additional analysis or insight...

Well, only that it had 160 miles of range and then 0 then next morning. But in terms of how the energy was consumed, I didn't especially since it wasn't sharing telemetry once it died. I should have looked in the energy section of the app to screenshot that, but unfortunely didn't. However, on...

Got a call from the SC an hour or so ago. They state that the reason the HV battery died so quickly was that it was waking up often to keep the 12V batteries (it's a 2022 so has two) charged. I didn't really accept that given that the vehicle reported over 50% charge and then 0% 8 hours later. I...

My vehicle is now showing as "In Service" in the app so starting to see some progress. Also would suggest that at least the low-voltage side is working as I'm seeing that status as well as its location being the SC. I am expecting an update by end-of-day on what's been found. Am quite interested...

Finally got it towed this morning to the SC, but so far it hasn't been touched AFAIK since my app is still reporting it at 0% and last known location as the airport garage.

I'm with you - I know that battery drain is the current price of admission with some vehicles handling that better than others and I parked with over 2.5x the charge needed to return home. I have a reservation for an R2, but the likelihood of exercising that option has been greatly reduced. For...

Oddly enough, I was first introduced to Rivian by RJ's dad who happens to live down the road from me - even saw RJ with his dad at the local supermarket over Christmas. When the vehicle works, I love it, but overall reliability and having confidence that issues will get fixed promptly and...

Finally got it towed this morning to the SC, but so far it hasn't been touched AFAIK since my app is still reporting it at 0% and last known location as the airport garage. I'll keep this thread apprised as I find anything out.

I presume that was with Gear Guard off. Did you take any other precautions/actions as that's a much better loss rate than I've heard?

No, and I took pictures from the outside of the vehicle when I got too it so that the SC couldn't claim that was the issue (possibly saying that would cause this not to be covered under warranty). In any event, I thought the seat belt latching issue was fixed a while ago, but I could have my...

Reminds me of a pickup that one of my friends bought (GM, not Ford) and after delivery took it back because of rattling in the passenger door which turned out to be a beer can. And yes, it was built on a Friday. No, I'm not soured on EVs as a whole and my daughter just purchased her first EV...

Thanks - I'll take all the luck I can get. It's unfortunate that owners' SC experiences have been so variable, mostly dependent on location AFAIK. For early adopters, you would think cultivating ambassadors for the brand would be an important objective.

Never replaced as far as I'm aware. I even asked at one of my (many) service visits and recall being told I don't need a replacement. I've generally inquired about those issues, including getting the original stamped subframe replaced for the V2 subframe but to no avail.

I've been worried about the impact that Gear Guard has in busy locations. It's weird that I was only seeing the expected vampire drain for the first several days and then wham. Thanks for the tips.
