    I saw some similar posts about getting the Comprehensive Inspection before their warranty was up but I didn't find where anyone who got it done actually listed what it included, so I thought I'd post it below for anyone else who was wondering what they got for $282, since I was pretty impressed...

    I want to post a positive experience with Rivian service. The issue: My Gen2 R1T Dual Max dropped Rivian Fast Charge speed to 9kW (with cooling fans running loud) after 60% SOC during my road trip from LA back to SFO (onward journey the previous day had no such issues). When I stopped the...

    Turns out there is a safe and seemingly reliable way to disconnect and or change the main 12V battery on 2023+ Gen 1 Single Battery R1Ts (and most likely R1Ss) - at least as of firmware 2024.51.02 (not tried or tested earlier). Here are the simple steps that allow you to prep the car for...

  11. Orlando SC - Tip of the Hat

    A tip of the hat to the crew at the Orlando service center! I have been pleasantly surprised by the way this center listened to my concerns, responded with solutions, provided great communication, and most of all, worked through a difficult diagnostic problem with a vibration noise on my R1T...
  12. Geiger counter rattle sound from B Pillar/rear door.

    I’ve seen a few posts about this Geiger counter sounding rattle coming from an R1S B pillar or rear door. I’ve got this happening on my passenger side.

  14. $1700 Service Center ONLY Windshield Replacement is UNSUSTAINABLE !

    I'm here to vent and commiserate! I'm a huge fan of my R1S... just this week I told someone who asked how I liked it ... That "it changed my life" (I said it with out thinking and it kind of made me second guess my answer in the moment) However, maybe the universe is telling me to pump the...

  16. Charge Port Noise

    I’m checking to find out if the charge door on my R1S is sticking upon opening. I hear a pretty loud pop when the charge port door opens. There is also a mechanical sound unlocking the charge port door and the pop is almost on top of it. Turn your volume up. Is this normal or should I have...

  18. Mixed feelings about latest service appointment

    Hey all, As many of you know, I’m a pretty patient person, and I’ve been overall generally positive and excited about Rivian and our R1S. But, my last service appointment has left me a bit soured. TLDR: It took a month to do less than a week’s worth of work, and they returned the car pretty...
  19. Approved body shop reviews?

    Unfortunately I was rear-ended recently. I'm in the Santa Monica area. Rivian officially says I should go straight to an approved body shop. They recommended three shops in metro LA and they all look pretty legit via general Google and Yelp reviews, however, I can't find any specific mentions of...
  20. Access to Customer Service, what is happening?

    Hi. Tried to call Rivian to get color on why my order (Max Pack R1T) was pushed again (near a SC and no change to config). Have been on hold over an hour.
