  1. Auto unlock as you approach car

    I have the latest update. I never had issues with my 2023 R1S but noticing this on my 2024 R1S lately.

  2. Auto unlock as you approach car

    Does any other Rivian owners have issues with the auto unlock feature as you are approaching your car with the key fob? Iā€™ve recently started to notice that it doesnā€™t always work. The auto lock as I walk away from my car will always work, but itā€™s the auto unlock as I approach my car thatā€™s...

  3. Liftgate Lighting Brightness

    I am playing with the lighting features under Displays and Lighting. How come when I click on the brighter light, on the right side, under "Liftgate lighting brightness", it will automatically revert to the left side button? It won't get out of the lower light.

  4. Car died after 6 days of delivery

    Rivian replaced the heater module due to a short. Told me that bad heater module in any EV will shut off the vehicle and prevent it from driving. Happens in all EVs. Nothing we can do to prevent it but this doesnā€™t happen often. At least it wasnā€™t the HV battery. But what they could have at...

  5. Car died after 6 days of delivery

    Alright folks. Rivian had to order a new cabin heater. They said that the one in the vehicle was faulty and when this goes bad, it shuts down the vehicle. That would explain the thermal warning. I donā€™t know how it works. But the next time something like this goes bad, R1S will...

  6. Car died after 6 days of delivery

    @Chrisy what is RDU? and what year is your vehicle? I am starting to think a few 2024 owners got a bad batch of batteries.

  7. Car died after 6 days of delivery

    @s0ysauce what year is your vehicle?

  8. Brand new R1S is DEAD

    @Riv E In I had some issue with my 2024 R1S dying after less than a week after delivery. Not sure what the issue is but itā€™s at the service center. 2023 R1S never had battery issues. I wonder how often the 400v battery is bad and if this id happening more to 2024 models? Donā€™t they test...

  9. Car died after 6 days of delivery

    Dropped by Rivian. They are still running diagnostics. Service doesnā€™t think itā€™s the 12v. They did mention 2024 changed the 12v. Itā€™s one larger vs two smaller ones in the 2023. Anyone know what size they are?

  10. Car died after 6 days of delivery

    There first warning said somehting about Thermal failure. That is what caused the AC fans to blow hard. Then Rivian service had me do a hard reset and the other warning signs came up.

  11. Car died after 6 days of delivery

    All the towing company needs are skates. They kept asking me for the key fob and I was already offsite. I had to explain to them that even with the key fob, the vehicle doesnā€™t go into neutral. Itā€™s stuck in park. I hope the towing company kept it in immaculate exterior condition. I hope...

  12. Car died after 6 days of delivery

    Update. I called Rivian service and it took 7 hours to get towing company out. It should NEVER take 7 hours.

  13. Car died after 6 days of delivery

    Itā€™s my first EV experience. Didnā€™t know a fault 12v would cause the vehcile to lock up. Literally cannot drive. Caused the thermal warning with fan blowing then battery warning. Letā€™s hope they can solve it. Makes me worry next time the 12v needs replacing. Hopefully itā€™s not an issue with...

  14. Car died after 6 days of delivery

    So a brand new vehicle and high voltage battery needs to be replaced? Wonder if any other owners had their high voltage battery malfunction causing vehicle to be inoperable?

  15. Car died after 6 days of delivery

    3 hours later still waiting for tow company. I opened my Rivian app and it says replace 12v battery. Thatā€™s the regular car battery that powers the electronics. A new car needing a new 12v battery? This causes the vehicle to just shut down? That should not cause the vehicle to be unable to...

  16. Car died after 6 days of delivery

    Just took delivery of 2024 R1S and was driving today when some error message popped up. It indicated somehting about thermal warning and started blasting the AC. I pulled over. Cannot adjust the air. Then battery issue popped up and said to drive to nearest service center. ā€œElectrical...

  17. Rivian Build Quality in 2024 (Out of Spec Detailing)

    I told them about the loud wind noise even with the windows rolled up. They said that is how EVs are built because there is no engine noise to drown it out.

  18. Porche can sell you a car with 0-60 in 3.1 and a range of 233 miles for only $163,400K

    I concur on the Cayenne being a fantastic vehicle. I like my R1S for different reasons. But Porsche makes solid vehicles.

  19. Less than stellar delivery experience at Costa Mesa

    Just wanted to give an update that Rivian did the right thing. I finally took delivery of a new R1S. I sent RJ a thank you and he (or his admin) responded. Glad Rivian did the right thing for us.

  20. Trading 2023 R1S in for a 2024 R1S

    Just received my 2024 R1S quad. I came from a 2023 R1S quad. Personally, I donā€™t notice anything majorly different other than the key fob being colored. The wind noise is still prevalent with all the windows up. Drive feels the same. Doors are heavier.
