I had significant drain when I received my Gen 1 R1T. It turned out to be a faulty occupancy sensor in the drivers seat. The truck thought someone was always in the vehicle. It would not sleep. Rivian replaced it and that fixed it.

I’m in Tucson and the temperatures obviously get quite high. I’ve seen the truck report over 140f in the cabin. The fans will regularly turn on to “protect the displays”. My garage isn’t big enough for the truck so it is parked outside all the time. I find that window shades on the windshield...

Living here in Tucson AZ, I can say for a fact that sunshades make a huge difference. It was 110F this week. Without it my truck runs the climate control all the time to “protect the infotainment electronics”. With the sunshade she is silent. I put them on the front windshield and the front side...

Also calculate the return trip. It’s going to be up hill. In my experience the trip will be longer than calculated. You will certainly run into traffic issues in Vegas and Phoenix. And I’d also count on the fact that one or two charging stops at EA are going to suck. (Make sure you have a...

I leased an R1T in December. I had this same question. Everything I read during my research said don't put anything down on a lease. I also read that Rivian won't give you cash for your trade-in. That they will only put the trade-in toward the cap cost of the lease. So I sold my Subaru outback...

Out of Spec has a lot of cold weather EV testing videos. Check out this one. It’s the same conditions that you are experiencing. The key is preconditioning the battery. There are two ways I know of to do this in a Rivian. 1. Put in a dcfc as your destination in the navigation. While driving...

I’ve had my R1T for 3 weeks. The truck stays outside. (My garage is too small and home to my partners Fiat 500e.) The first night it lost 20% overnight in 30 degree weather. It wouldn’t shut down. The climate and radio ran all night. Service had me upgrade from 2023.38.0 to 2023.46.0. The drain...

Vampire drain fixed. Thanks Phoenix Service Center! “Verified customer concern. Upon inspection found driver front seat occupant detection sensor reporting that the seat was occupied when not. Internally open sensor. Removed and replaced seat cushion assembly and verified proper operation after...

I’m sorry to hear about your problems with repairs. I have a similar issue in that my truck had an issue on delivery. It wouldn’t go to sleep and drained 20% in 10 hrs the first night I owned it. I filed a service request and the first appointment was 2 months out. I called and spoke to a...

Yeah. I definitely hear squeaks when going over bumps at slower speeds.

Here’s the link to the Out of Spec range test video between the 20”, 21”, and the 22” tires. reference consumption is as follows. 20” = 2.14 KWh/mi 21” = 2.4 KWh/ mi 22” = 2.3 Kwh/mi
