  1. Problem with Tesla Universal Wall Connector

    Yes. But just taking it down to 46 amps isn't always enough. So I reduce it to 42.
  2. Problem with Tesla Universal Wall Connector

    I'm having this same issue with my Gen2 R1S and a single Gen3 Wall Connector. 60 amp breaker. The wall connector is configured to limit at 48 amps. Both my wife's model Y and and my R1S correctly display the 48 amp limit while charging. The Tesla charges without fail. The R1S faults the wall...
  3. 2025.26 fails to download

    My build date was July 2024, also out of the date range. "Approximate" is the key word here.
  4. Gen2 R1S won't wake after hard reset

    Update! Duncan SC sent word this morning that the car was ready. Took a half day off to make the 90 mile drive to pick it up. Then an 18 wheeler rear-ended me in stop-and-go traffic. Nobody hurt. No dispute on the truck driver's fault. Just a 3 hour delay waiting for highway patrol to get there...
  5. 2025.26 fails to download

    In case you're curious, the procedure for replacing the battery with the revised bracket is called "FSAM-1635". The procedure document can be found here. Rivian officially diagnosed the cause of my failed update as "12V Battery was causing communication issues for update".
  6. 2025.26 fails to download

    I wouldn't recommend checking the battery yourself. My understanding of the issue is that the battery terminal and/or the bracket causes premature battery failure. It's under your front passenger seat. There's another post on this forum showing the corrosion caused by the battery failure. Even...
  7. 2025.26 fails to download

    Be careful with a hard reboot for this update failing. I did this last week (Rivian support on the phone, directing me to do so) with my Gen2 R1S in the garage and it bricked. Totally dead. Tow truck had to drag it out. If this ever happens again, I'll do the reboot with the truck parked...
  8. List your Rivian (Enterprise) provided loaner car during service

    2024 Chevy Equinox right now. Baaaaase trim. Stinks of cigarettes and regret. First time I've had the car in SC after a year.
  9. Why 2025.26.30 update is a HUGE deal for Rivian Autonomy (Mobileye is dead)

    Never seen "EFB" before, but I can guess what it stands for. I'll say this as a HW3 owner that paid out the nose for something not delivered 4 years later - Bring it on.
  10. Why 2025.26.30 update is a HUGE deal for Rivian Autonomy (Mobileye is dead)

    Rivian really ought to be bragging about this, but I guess that would draw attention to the fact that they leaned on an outside provider for the initial ADAS. Hey Tesla - take notes. This is how you roll out driver assistance updates - they work and your power users notice the improvements. My...
  11. Service Before End of Warranty

    This is why the R1S is my first-ever leased vehicle. After driving the wheels off of Hondas and Subarus, it's easier to stomach the issues of an otherwise badass truck if I know I'm going to say "goodbye" in ~36 months.
  12. Gen2 R1S won't wake after hard reset

    Thank you! That's a terrible experience, but this gives me hope. Brutal is the right word for it. We couldn't get inside to turn the steering wheel, so an awful lot of torque was applied to the wheels themselves.
  13. Gen2 R1S won't wake after hard reset

    The first tow truck showed up with nothing but the truck, sized it up and left. Rivian support said they specifically required wheel-lifting dollies. Then they contracted a new company that showed up at ~7:30 last night...with skates instead of the dollies. I spent an hour and a half helping...
  14. Gen2 R1S won't wake after hard reset

    Some pictures of the garage extraction.
  15. Gen2 R1S won't wake after hard reset

    There appears to be an emerging issue with the 12V batteries in Gen2 vehicles.
  16. Gen2 R1S won't wake after hard reset

    That's the extra weird part. I had it plugged in while the 12V system was still operational. Even now with the 12V system jumped it won't initiate a charge. The HV battery was ~65% when I performed the reset, so perhaps something is wrong with the HV-LV charger. Thank you. Realllly frustrating.
  17. Gen2 R1S won't wake after hard reset

    They quoted me $800 to tow it back. I get it - that's the actual cost of a 100 mile tow. But in the context of Rivian operating one phantom service center in Charlotte for a long time and having a new official SC right around the corner (other folks reporting already received support...
  18. Gen2 R1S won't wake after hard reset

    Yes, I have a 48 amp Tesla wall connector and an adapter...but it's on the other side of the garage. Something worse is going on. It wasn't even trying to charge from the L1. Now the 12V system is dead. I jumped it through the cables next to the trailer hitch so that I could get my kids' car...
  19. Gen2 R1S won't wake after hard reset

    The hazards and DRLs have since turned themselves off. The door handles are still presented, but the doors won't open. I plugged in a L1 charger and nothing happened. No light on the eject button.
