I have a Gen1 and just completed a ~1,700-mile road trip while towing in 100ā120°F heat. My battery was warmer than usual but nowhere near what youāre seeing. Somethingās likely wrongā¦
Exercise caution when using high-inrush devices with the Rivianās 120V outlet. high inrush current can overwhelm the software breaker, blowing the fuse and if you have a Gen1 necessitating an HV battery drop for repair. I recommend purchasing an inrush meter to test what you are doing on a home...
Just finished a road trip with 20 charging stops: 16 Tesla, 3 EA, 1 Rivian. First time using my Tesla adapter ā flawless experience. Fast, no waits, zero issues. EA was a disaster. Rivian worked but de-rated quickly with a hot plug message.
Got the Tesla membership just for the trip ā now itās...
Even worse, early Rivian owners remember when some server issue took out phone as a key for everyone for several hours. I was out of town and my card was left in the truck and couldnāt get in for hours. Iād rather risk someone hacking and stealing my car than get stranded by some MFA issue. Iāll...
by the way, I watched this video, The Grille Trend that Kills 509 People per Year, the other day and found it very interesting and entertaining by FortNine, a popular motorcycle channel. Explains how the front-end design of modern vehicles in the US are leading to more pedestrian deaths. I'm...
This is terrible and a bit chilling as I'm in these sorts of school pickup/drop off lines daily not too far away from this school. Looks like the white SUV made contact with the car in front of it, so the Rivian hit with significant force. What likely happened is Rivian driver was feet off all...
I was also debating the CRF300L, but went with the KLX mostly due to the suspention.
For the straps, I go a little overboard in case of failure. There are 4 mounting points (2 back, 2 front) on the carrier. I do 4 handle bar strapes to each of the 4 mounting points. Then do rear frame to rear...
I've done a few hundred miles (multiple trips) with a KLX300 (same size as your Honda) using the harbor freight 600 pound motorcycle carrier (cheap and solid). An anti rattle clamp is a must. I've had zero issues and it feels pretty solid. I will say I don't love watching it bounce around over a...
I started to get this issue a couple weeks ago too. Happens both at home and away from home. Iād say itās about 50/50 now. Iām now looking back as I walk away and locking manually after itās clear it wonāt lock. Perhaps related to the latest update? Iām using an iPhone 16 pro max.
What I find intriguing is how people form opinions about the effectiveness of FSD based on outdated experiences. FSD software and hardware are not static, and unless youāve recently used the latest version of both, your assessment is likely limited. I received a free trial of FSD on my MY with...
Nope, but can look into doing that.
Totally understand. I'm not expecting specific supportāI know this is a passion project and many are contributing in their own time. Iām glad to have it and plan to keep using it, but I do think itās important to acknowledge that Rivian+Comma is still very...
I wouldnāt say there are no issues. While perhaps not directly related to the comma, the Rivian doesnāt seem to be happy with a comma connected. Iāve been experiencing Rivian cruise control errors and failures, including some that require a vehicle reset. While most of these errors flash on the...
I had the same situation...in the end you will be fine. All you need to do is say "ok. I'll take it to a USAA partner shop, please make me an appointment." Then drive down and in 30 seconds their shop will tell you (and USAA) they dont work on Rivians. Call USAA back and you will be good to go...
I centered it to the mobile eye, so the result was a little over 1 inch off center. I drove a few hundred miles with it like that and didnāt notice an issue so that confirms it doesnāt need to be perfect. That said, I just remounted it to be centered and recalibrated. Even if there is no...
Thanks for the info. Bad news on needing a 2nd usb C as I assume that makes the magnetic mounts ( I have the beartech) effectively useless as it only makes connection to one USB port.
Starlink mini is great. I keep mine mounted to my crossbar and power routed to the bed when off roading and camping. The $10/10GB a month roam plan is ideal for me as most of the time Iām just using it to stay connected with family while out In the woods. Itās easy to add more data or change the...
