I have a good bit of phantom power loss on my 2023 R1T. I have closed the app as well as turned proximity unlocking and Gear Guard off at home. After not driving the car for 24 hours, the charger still pulled 15.7kw to top the charge back off. That still seems like a LOT - especially compared to our EQB and former C40 and i3s, which were all basically zero.

Is that normal?

Are there other features you folks recommend looking at that may be causing this drain?

It’s worth noting that my vehicle was sold as new, but apparently had undisclosed rail damage so there is an off chance something may still not be repaired correctly (have had multiple repairs to correct sloppy pre-delivery work)

FWIW The energy measurement is coming from the Sense monitor in our electric panel.
I left my vehicle for 2 weeks while on vacation. It lost about 15 miles of range

I went away for 8 days.

2 sources (screenshots below) give me some idea of drain when not driving but plugged in while in garage (no gear guard)

Rivian app screenshot of info while topping up . This graph disappears once charge level attained.

Emporia charger app data screenshot showing drain while parked compared to driving in July.
