I just tested the tethering and it seems to work well for Spotify & Alexa. Hopefully this will make Alexa more stable & require fewer reboots. It’s a shame losing the satellite nav maps & the gear guard live cam, but at least I’ve solved my most important features without having to pay for a...

Hopefully the Spotify will as well. Having to squint to change music or podcasts on my (mounted) iPhone is dangerous enough to get the “keep both hands on the wheel” warning.

I’m right there with you! I took delivery of my R1T in November 2023. It’s not even 1 year and they just shut off features. I do not recall any mention of a trial period. Alexa in particular is the voice control for the vehicle. It’s a (highly imperfect*) safety feature. *I hate when...

Only if you remember to precondition the vehicle… ??‍♂️

Oddly yes. It’s an Easter egg. I forget how to activate it, but it replaced your navigation map with mars terrain. Quite useless, but my kids liked it about as much as the fart sound. Note that I am not requesting Rivian adopt these bored-programmer options. They’re gimmicky.

Hey crew. Thx for the thoughtful discussion, even to those who chose to take pot shots at me personally. My office lot has no shade options and when the internal temp in my R1T gets over 120F and I remember to pre-condition it with sufficient time for it to cool down, yay me (and my...

I ALWAYS used this on my Teslas. Never worried about sitting in a stifling vehicle. It’s a simple addition that you can choose not to use. I never used dog mode or drove on Mars, but certainly never complained that those features were available to me… ??‍♂️

Why can’t my Rivian prevent the internal cabin temp from going over 90(?)F? All my Teslas had this simple feature. Yes it can drain the battery, so we should have the option to turn it on or off. I don’t always remember to pre-condition the cabin before going to it. I chose the light seats...

And now Alexa is disconnecting on a daily basis… ??

Our Real Estate taxes are lower than average. The real BS is that us Virginians get hit with an EV surcharge of $110 every year on our registration fees to make up for not paying gas taxes. Thx Gov Younkin.

I paid $90k for my 2023 R1T in November. I received a VA supplemental PPT invoice in February with a $73k assessment (for 2 months of 2023) and just got my 1st half 2024 PPT invoice with a $66k assessment.

I started to hear a random chime repeating every 15 seconds or so, along with a sound snippet that sounded like someone speaking the word “hundred” super fast. It would not stop during or after a soft (infotainment) or hard reboot. There was nothing in the owners manual, so I put in a service...

This is still happening to me regardless of software update. Each time, I have to reboot the truck (hold left side of left toggle button + hazard together for 10-15 seconds). Once rebooted, I sign out of Alexa and sign back in using the QR code it displays. It can only be done while in park...

Does anyone know why Alexa becomes “unavailable?” I’ve had to reboot my R1T several times and even then, the connection takes about 10 minutes after reboot. What can I do to prevent Alexa from disconnecting? It’s the voice control for the truck…

Something doesn't seem quite right with these useable battery estimates. Why would a 7.6% increase in battery capacity (141 Max v 131 Large) result in 14% additional range (400 v 350)?

I like it. I went with a chrome delete & darkening of the front light bar & DRL…

Sorry bud. Rivian is struggling to keep up with deliveries and staff appropriately. Communication is awful. Tesla was the same in the first 3 years. Enjoy the Audi.

I have had two service experiences since taking ownership in November, one of which was awful; the other was annoying... Upon receiving my R1T, it would not accept a level 2 charge at my home (using mobile charger & the same 50amp 220v dryer outlet I used for my Teslas). I traded messages with...

After two years waiting for my max-pack R1T, I finally received it Nov 11th. But it won’t accept a level 2 charge (only level 3). It took 3 weeks and several escalations before I could finally get a service appointment. The avoidance & runaround are especially unacceptable for a $86k vehicle...

After two years and numerous changes to my configuration (not of my choosing), my Maxpack Performance dual motor R1T was supposed to be ready for my pick up today. Despite postponing my delivery by two days to give them more time for inspection, they missed a dent on the tailgate, some...
