For me, it's really no different than rebooting your home PC. They advise rebooting a home PC weekly. We don't get software updates that often but I feel it just gets a new version off to a good start and when users have a problem after a new install, reboot is the first thing they recommend...
I started a drive some time ago with the right front passenger door not completely closed. Man did I get warnings and of course, you can't reach the passenger door from the driver's seat. The warnings continued until I got to my destination, got out and closed it.
I was in the car and it was in drive mode and the assistant said it wasn't "safe" to vent the windows when I tried. The app can vent the windows on a parked car. I never understood why you could not vent the windows when in drive mode with the app either. The only other option is to slightly...
Why is it not safe to vent the windows when driving? It's something I do quite often manually which I am sure is less safe than letting the assistant do it. Not opening them all the way, just venting them.
According to the RivianTrackr YouTube Channel ("Hey, Rivian. The New AI Assistant in 2026.15 Is Wild"), you can say something like "Hey, Rivian. I want to submit feedback. The heated seats are still turned on and you told me they were turned off, so it didn't work." And the Rivian responds on...
I had an "interesting" thing happen with this update. I had all of the windows all the way down on my 2025 R1S. I went in to the restaurant and sat where I could see the car. I hit the button to "close windows" and the windows on the right side (which I could see) closed. Later when I went...
You just drive the car to the charger location and tell it that location is "home". Of course, that will screw up the locking and unlocking at your actual home location. I have two houses and whenever I go from one to the other I have to change the "home" location so the car does not...
For reasons unknown, the font size for the mi/kWh and kWh numbers in Trip A (on the Gauges display)have been reduced quite a lot (roughly 22%). To the point that they are a bit hard to read for us old folks. Also the car image in the Gauges display has also been reduced by roughly 15%. What...
The car cannot rely on map speed data. End of story. It has to actually READ and UNDERSTAND the signs, even when they are contradictory as in temporary speed changes for construction zones or "permanently" temporary as for school zones. Until it can do that, Universal Hands Free or Full Self...
