Yes it will reject the session.
By default, if the Tesla charger doesn't detect a session started through the Tesla app, it will reach out to Rivian to authorize the charge through their system in accordane with the Plug&Charge agreement between Rivian and Tesla. This is by design and how...
My educated guess is that Quebec is geofenced. To answer an earlier question, in Quebec French must be prioritized. You can't really offer any service/product in English that isn't offered, and actually prioritized in French, so if Rivian Assistant isn't available in French, they can't offer...
Anyone have an idea what the roof rack is used for? Between the wiring and the extensions beyond the vehicle, I'm guessing this is some sort of ADAS test rig. Anyone have better information?
Actually, there are specific federal regulations on the model year issue... every model year has to include January 1, but there is some flexibility on when that model year starts or stops. It can last less than a calendar year or up to 729 days.

Uhh... Rivian clearly states...
Adapters will begin shipping in April, and we’ll prioritize our longest-standing owners for earliest fulfillment.
Not saying everyone will get it in April, but some will ship if they stick to the stated timeline.
True... but official Rivian position is as follows: https://rivian.com/support/article/can-i-use-a-third-party-nacs-dc-adapter
At least with the Rivian adapter, in the unlikely case something goes wrong, the vehicle should still be covered under warranty.
I still don't get why a CCS to NACS conversion will be all that difficult or pricey. Tesla built the v3 Superchargers to be compatible with CCS for a reason. More importantly, we know that all of the required conversion hardware can fit in a space the size of a MagicDock adapter, so I don't...
Thanks. I was hoping there would be an upgrade to the MagicDock connector along with an upgrade to the cable length. The yet-to-ship Lectron adapter is rated at 500A and up to 1000V. My last MagicDock charge on Sunday, I hit right at 150kw, so theoretically ~428V at 350A. If upgraded...
Does anyone know if a Rivian can charge above 150kW on a v4? Theoretically I think it should be able to get up to the maximum 210kWish, but I don't know if it has been enabled yet.
My VIN is 0156xx for my R1S. I was contacted by my guide on 7/14 and started the 8-steps immediately, completed around 7/20 with outside financing and no trade-in (due to comically low offer from Rivian). Service Center says it arrived on 7/18 (Minneapolis) and asked if I wanted to take...
The speed limits on electric vehicles including the Rivian are generally related to the single speed gearing and the speed of the electric motor. At some point, the electric motor begins to spin at a speed that will cause it to overheat and fail. Thus, the speed limits are most likely there to...
I am a lawyer and, to be fair, if this was an issue I was asked to argue on behalf of a client, I would take a fee to argue either side of this 'binding contract" issue. I signed an "Binding Purchase" Agreement on my July 2021 reserved R1S last week. As a reinstated order, I even put my $1000...
Out...I've lost confidence in Rivian to be able to deliver. Clearly they were working on false assumptions. The investor lawsuits alone may destroy the company. I just hope I can get my deposit back before they file for BK.
