2022 R1T Vin vs Price / Reliability

[kallisti5]

66k miles in on my early 2022 R1T. Here's my "run down" of issues.

My minor issues seen on early VIN R1T (all warranty / recall covered)

• Driver door gasket fell off. Warranty fix
• Door lights in back seat came unplugged. Warranty fix.
• Bad dash rattle, NVH. Warranty fix
• Early dual battery vehicles can't reset their own 12v DTC / warning via RiDE. If you self-replace, you have to go to dealership to reset the DTC for ~$28 USD

My major issues seen on early VIN R1T (all warranty / recall covered)

• Drive unit oil loss + damage due to improperly torqued oil plugs.
  • Recall - Test (and potential replacement) of drive unit. RCA-38-23-003-2
• Halfshaft bolts backing out (you hear a rattling noise when driving slow, the bolt might be flopping around in the wheel center.
  • Recall RCA-38-23-001-2
• Powered tonneau cover replacement due to design flaw (well known)
• LOUD Suspension *CREAK* when bumps / moves.
  • Two visits.. first one "can't reproduce"
  • Second visit: Oh... yeah. Suspension items need replaced due to incorrect torque.
• HVAC Condensation leak over time. Difficult to notice since floor mats in place. Floor wet, musty. Water stain. (I think this is turning into a recall)
  • Repaired under warranty, carpet replaced under warranty.
• DCFC communication issues slowly crept in. After much fumbling, 3+ SC visits, negotiation, and crying I got them to change the Central Gateway Module. Testing this afternoon.
