Report a physically damaged RAN charger?

[Dave Cundiff]

I was at RAN/Tysons Corner Mall this week as well, mostly to scout the location for future trips that might involve another EV rental out of DCA.

The RAN chargers are located in a very busy parking lot, in REALLY prime parking spaces on Floor 2 -- prime spaces for ICE drivers' resentment.

I didn't like the aggressive driving in that parking lot -- much too crowded for my tastes, especially near the RAN chargers, though there are MANY unused spaces farther from the stores and on the upper floors. Perhaps I have once again become a "country mouse," but aggressive driving is ugly (and usually unnecessary IMO) even in cities.

I was able to update the PlugShare "Descriptions" field with better charger-finding instructions. The RAN doesn't show on PlugShare's map, for unknown reasons, but the current title of "Tyson's Corner Center - Parking Garage C (2)" can be found on a PlugShare location search.

For reporting a damaged charger, my first thought was (855) RIVIAN-5, which has been very responsive on vehicle problems in my experience. I'm glad others thought of the "SOS" button.

Best to all!

And that's one of the lesser-crowded garages at Tysons. I mean, does anybody really shop at Nordstroms?

You should go check where the Electrifry America ones are. Much more crowded, imo. But with the mall packed with holiday shoppers (I should know, was there last night to pick up my R1T model from the Rivian store that the guy there ordered for me), I don't think anywhere there is good right now. Unless you like people watching.

Uh, see, over on Reddit, we use the slash-s (/s) at the end of a--less sincere remark--to indicate sarcasm. Otherwise people think you're serious and really will "follow your advice."
ETA: Are you serious? Like, is that an actual option?

SOS stands for "Save Our SoCs"
