I think the service centers try and triage by "severity" of the issue. Since yours is still able to be driven, I think 6 weeks is somewhat reasonable. Hopefully the handle still works until then!

Yeah, I’m okay with 6 weeks with the holidays. Just wanted to let people know, it’ll be a bit before I have any sort of answer (I hope!)
Biggest worry is that I take time off work, drive an hour each way, just to be told to wait until it really breaks

i have had a similar issue in my R1T. mine didn't delay as much as yours but it opened much slower in the rear than the front door handles. and there was a creaking noise on the drivers side once it did present. Rivian replaced the drivers side read door handle. when i got it back it was fine. the next morning same thing happened so i was perplexed. its been a couple of months now and with the weather turning cold the creaking sound has gone away but it still opens slower in the rear. not a huge deal for me as long as the noise is gone but i'll be monitoring it once the weather warms up again.
