We can land men on the moon, but we canāt get the door handles to unlock reliably. Three years in and probably one of the things I like least about the vehicle .Iām always either standing in the rain waiting for the door to open or Iām with a group of passengers and we all stand around wondering...
Yours appears to be much harder breaking than mine but my R1S 2023 has eyes of it's own. 3 lane wide straight road with no vehicles in sight, I'm in the center or left lane and it brakes 2-3 times in the same spots in a 1/2 mile stretch. Drives me nuts as I have to drive this road all the time...
The future of EVās in the US is grim, correction very grim. That other country across the sea is going to take over completely in the next three years. Unfortunately, there will be no catching up.
Hereās the end of the story. A Rivian Mobile Tech came out and replaced the battery in about 12 minutes. It took another 10 minutes to reboot the car and do diagnostics with his laptop.. The traction battery was still charged at 71%, the same as when I left for vacation. The tech was super...

The fun is just beginning. The tow company spent three hours trying to get it out of my garage. They finally dropped the front carrier to reposition it and the car rolled back into my carport , taking out my carport column. I guess itās time to try a mobile service.
Arrived home from an 8 day trip and 2023 R!S wouldn't wake. Was at 71% when I left. I've been on 15+ weeklong trips without a problem. SC says since it wasn't plugged in Rivian will not provide warranty, tow or rental car. Is this the new normal? Is it due to a recent OTA upgrade? I typically...
Driving around LA with all the tire, dust and exhaust emissions with your windows Open is probably about the worst thing possible for your health. Godspeed.
