  1. I no longer worry about vampire drain….

    Yeah, it’s more in line with 1/2 ton(despite its weight just under 9k) I came from 1/2 and 3/4 ton trucks so I’m use to that already. The R1T took some getting use to for me. I had a Silverado EV WT(work truck trim) from enterprise for one service appt. was not impressed. Mine is the RST “1st...
  2. I no longer worry about vampire drain….

    Mostly because I traded my 24’ quad R1T in on a new 24’ Silverado EV RST. 😆 Sorry I had to. I miss my R1T and won’t rehash why I traded it in. In short for me, Service and Customer Service. So, why am I here? Well, for one the Silverado forums are boring, 😂 and I’m still rooting for Rivian...
  3. Rivian Switching from Alexa to Google Gemini - Bringing Voice / Text Integration (reported by RivianTracker)

    Traded my R1T in on a Silverado EV a week and half ago. The Rivian was first vehicle in a long time that did not have text integration. I forgot how handy it was this last week and half getting and replying to texts. SEV uses Google Built In and Gemini and has been pretty handy. No CarPlay...
  4. Panel alignment issues wearing me out

    I just got my truck back after 50 days out of service for what was suppose to be an overnight adjustment. Had I known what I was going to go through I would have ignored it. It was not really the SC’s fault, all my issues were from their body shops. Took 2 new fenders to get it right. Interior...
  5. Not sure if I should laugh or cry at this point.

    Update: after 50 days out of service I was told my truck was finally fixed. They did drive it out to me and exchanged for the loaner which was very much appreciated. I still have the outstanding issue of the ripped leather on drivers door that happened while in service and is not scheduled to...
  6. What was your Buy Back, Replacement timeline, initiated to new Rivian delivery

    Hello all, Monday I reached out to the SC to see if I could stop into and chat with a manager after the latest failure at fixing my truck(I live 2 hours from PDX SC and it was a day off). It was a good convo, the issues have all been caused by third party vendor issues so I was not mad at the...
  7. 25 R1S Tri repurchase approved after 5 months of ownership. Ordered a 2026 Quad LE as a replacement.

    I just asked for a replacement / buyback today for my R1T that is going on it's 45th day out of service and was told yesterday at least 2 more weeks. In all my research I found that Rivian is allowed to charge a usage fee for the amount of miles on the vehicle. There is a generic formula I found...
  8. Not sure if I should laugh or cry at this point.

    I read through your saga today while doing my buyback research. You are much more patient than me. By my count this will now be the 5th time (attempting) to repair the fender in this single service visit. I asked the 855RIVIAN5 CSR to send a replacement/buyback ticket to legal this morning, so...
  9. Not sure if I should laugh or cry at this point.

    When I found the PPF starting to rub and peel, it was May 11th, reported it, sent pictures, and made appt, the first being the July 8th. When I got an estimate of $110 I replied to make sure I was still covered even though by the time of the appt I would be past the 12 month/12,000 mile...
  10. Not sure if I should laugh or cry at this point.

    I am at that point. I have tomorrow off and need to run into PDX anyways so I think I'm going to stop in an see about talking with a service manager. The service advisor I have been dealing with has been fine, but it's pretty obvious his role is to update folks, answer basic questions, and basic...
  11. Not sure if I should laugh or cry at this point.

    I was exploring a 2025 R1S end of may as they had a promo for an extra $3K on a Rivian trade in as well as some great lease deals. Then when talking about my trade in and upcoming service was told to hold off until I had service take a look. A week back I reached out to my service advisor and...
  12. Not sure if I should laugh or cry at this point.

    The morning I dropped it off I was told, "most likely will be done later today, but plan for overnight". He told me that they had others in the same VIN range with this same issue. The fender was re-designed at some point to add a "Backing" to help it keep it's shape. It's just a crazy thing...
  13. Not sure if I should laugh or cry at this point.

    Dropped off my R1T for a mis-aligned/warped front drivers side fender on July 8th(had reported and requested appt on May 11th, which was 12 days and about 400 miles under the 12month/12,000 alignment warranty. Had put it off because it wasn’t a big deal, then saw the factory applied PPF was...
  14. Asking app for directions to my truck location Google sending me to business with trucks “name”

    My truck is coming up on 6 weeks in service. During that time the only thing I could do in the app is look at where my truck has been or is currently at. For the most part it’s spent most of its time at the Beaverton Certified Body Shop. Today I happened to catch it making its way back to the...
  15. Lack of updates lead me to use drone to see status of truck in body shop lot

    I will admit to this infraction myself, but it's how I saw the hole😂. I have no ACL in my right knee so a ladder was out. I had the drone out for another reason, it was an accident.
  16. Lack of updates lead me to use drone to see status of truck in body shop lot

    Above I mentioned this was really a spur of the moment thing. Sitting drinking my morning coffee on Saturday, trying to think of something to do for the day, as most of my days off are planned out this one was not. I've never been married, no kids. I lost my father a few years back and my mother...
  17. Lack of updates lead me to use drone to see status of truck in body shop lot

    Honestly my only real gripe with Rivian is their lack of communication. I like the idea of messaging through the app as its a record of what has ben said back and forth. You just have no idea when they will reply sometimes its right away, other times the next day. However having to call the...
  18. Lack of updates lead me to use drone to see status of truck in body shop lot

    I posted another thread the other day about his concern. When I dropped off for what was suppose to be over night I was at 51% While in service I can't see state of charge, and I'm pretty sure it's not on a charger sitting in the lot. No idea what this means for the health of either battery high...
  19. Lack of updates lead me to use drone to see status of truck in body shop lot

    Hmm I'm pretty sure in order to ignore, you would have to actually go through the process of ignoring. Yet you took the time to post a reply that you are going to ignore as opposed to simply hitting the ignore button, moving on and letting the thread sink. Thank you for the input on my utterly...
