I just got around to reading your post @onesoil and commend you on being candid, objective and diplomatic in the write up. I more than understand your frustration and sincerely hope that Rivian corporate takes note of your experience, which I suspect is far from uncommon. I have been lucky with...

My Jack Pucks live in the R1T and get used at least once a year. I have the required annual PA state safety inspection done at my local service station, and part of the routine is the removal of the wheels to check the brake pads, so the truck goes on the lift, courtesy of the pucks. The shop...

Quite late to the party here, but I just submitted a request, a few weeks ahead of a road-trip to Atlanta from the Philly area. This will be the first long trip in our 2024 R1T and it will also be the firs time the truck will see a DCFC. Until now, our trips were only to relatively close places...

Is this a used Rivian? I think that that the comprehensive factory warranty is transferable, which in turns means that the R1T is covered through 2029. Check the detail from XCare, but I believe that their policy essentially provides no coverage until then. That detail - the overlapping period...

I previously had a set of generic aftermarket crossbars that worked just fine, but were limited since they only fit the bed of my R1T, and did not have T-slots. They were actually quite well made, fit nicely and were reasonably priced, but their limitations ultimately resulted in me selling...

Agree, with the caveat that it has to be the pre-2025 Telluride Yes, and that's regrettable. Our second car is a 2022 Telluride that IMO, has very nice clean lines and a face that that evoke earlier Land Rover. The interior of the Telly is also one of the most intelligently designed cabins out...

Understand completely the wish to not pay for coverage that you may not use @Dave Cundiff and my thread is an attempt to try to gain some insight into that. I'm pretty well convinced that the most costly element in any EV, the traction battery, and the drive train, are unlikely to often be...

There are a few threads in the forum about extended warranties, but none that I could find were dedicated to discussions about when to purchase, so I started one. From what I've read, it looks like roughly 35,000 miles is the sweet spot, assuming that the mileage is also within the four (or...

I predict the end of August for my update but I'm not a Connect+ subscriber, so the wait is expected. I actually welcome the delay because by the time I get it, all the early bugs have been identified and fixed.

Thanks for that clarification - if that was total miles, Rivan Care would be close to worthless. A related question: Is there a total mileage cutoff and if so, what is it?

If that's so, it's a very significant limitation and renders any but the shorter term Rivan Care warranties essentially worthless. I'd think most folks would hit 80k in five or six years, so it would be a waste of money to get anything beyond that. XCare is looking like a far better deal.

This is the wording from the email that lead me to think that coverage is shorter: "Rivian Care contracts go into effect right away and when pricing the contract, any overlap with your factory warranty is taken into account." I admit that I'm interpreting that broadly. It surely must mean that...

Heard back from Rivian today. I made a table of the coverage options and it is posted below. Caveats: Applies only to a 26 month old vehicle with 19,000 miles. Coverage starts immediately and includes the existing time, so if you have a 26 month old vehicle and select say 60 month coverage, you...

I just logged in and it looks like the web page has changed. There had been a link to a form that asked for info, including your VIN. I filled it out months ago, and tried again a week or so so back. That got me the same error message that others reported. I sent an email request to Rivian...

I've only had one other extended warranty, for a Volvo XC90 V-8 Sport that was a great car in many ways, but a massive money pit. I used the extended warranty extensively, but honestly don't know if it had a one-time only clause. None of the repairs - power steering pump, alternator, rear...

Thanks for doing the work on this. I wonder if the "one-time only" replacement policy is really as bad as first appears. Wouldn't the new part have its own warranty? And if the second failure was caused by the failure of another part, something I'd think could be common with suspension...

It took me a while as well. It's in "Insurance", which is an option at the footer of the page.

The price with the higher $500 deductible from XCare is pretty reasonable (see snip below), but I do have a few concerns. I'm frankly not familiar with the company, and my understanding is that you first pay out of pocket, and wait to be reimbursed. I'm OK with the wait for reimbursement...

Same here. I will try emailing them

This is great news for many, and hopefully for me as well. Assuming the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is one of the 48 states, it means that I can plan on keeping my late Gen 1 R1T beyond the initial warranty period. The R1T is a great vehicle, and mine has been nearly flawless in the two years...
