I don't see a correlation with the high number of updates and software improvements/adding value. I have received updates that fixed an issue and months later received another that would break it. I have no problem with Rivian throwing in new features, but I, like many other Rivian owners, would prefer that manpower and resources were allocated to fix the issues that many customers are dealing with. I don't need or quite frankly want new features. I just want the features I originally paid for to work.
No sure how long you have had your vehicle. In the 2+ years I have owned a R1T I have seen lots of improvements. I quick trip down the release notes proves this out. My wife gets Tesla updates on her M3 with a similar cadence. I've never seen another car maker do anything close.

FROM RIVIAN:

Owl together now... ?

By popular request, our latest software update will give Rivian owners three lock sound options: bluebird, owl, or a combo -- daytime bluebird that switches to night owl. ☀??


Love having owl hoot back!!




When? s00n I hope ????

I gave a hoot but I really think they need to do bug fixes before new cool features come out….

I am a little frustrated with my R1S, I am averaging a service center appointment every other month. Issues from fender flares falling off the vehicle trim pieces peeling back to the carpeting not staying down and the front floor all wet due to the “firewall plug” not seated properly and the AC equipment soaked the front cabin.
I don't think that their software team is going to fix any of those issues. The owl sound is just a marginal piece of code - a bone thrown to the aficionados. Eventually there'll be something in the OTAs that will meet your approval.

Opal downloaded .43 this morning. She is now hooting again. She was pretty over the bird tweet. Opal really needs to be a bird of prey, not a bird that is preyed upon.

WHY DOES THE CAR KEEP BEEPING AT ME? After the latest update, there's constant chiming. Is it related to navigation?

Got it! Looks like the nav volume got defaulted to something other than zero after the last update. It was chiming for every turn.

Love this sound and so do the owls at our place. They often reply.

Anyway, just had to seek out one of these bumper stickers.
