I wonder if the 7500 tire rotation can be done remotely anymore. They added to check fastener torque and inspect suspension, so I assume a lift will be needed for that.

I saw someone on another thread or maybe on Reddit say that their 7,500 service was scheduled as a mobile visit for the next day ;-).

That goes in the "insert liquid" port inside the front trunk (passenger side).

Note/disclaimer: If you don't know what's there, that's a joke, DO NOT DO THIS. I repeat, don't do this.

My best guess is most in service don't even know these recommendations exist yet.

Some of this stuff sounds like an excuse to charge service fees. We need a professional to check for cracked windows?? They need to check brake pads on a car for which you will almost never use the brakes? I need Rivian to check my tire tread? This stuff is a joke. Anyone should be able to rotate tires, top off fluids, and do a pretty basic visual inspection. Testing the systems sounds like something only Rivian can
do by plugging into the computer, but it also seems like you will know if the computer systems are not working.

The 22,500 mile check sounds more
legit.

Rivians really needs to expand their service center. I'm tired of driving over 800 miles round trip get anything done. I often drive to my Tesla Service Center thinking what if this was a Rivian Service Center instead :fingerscrossed:

Especially now that they want to check fasteners every 7500 and get even deeper checking subframes, etc... every 22k.

Thank you. But, I don't see the oil change intervals. Can't believe you overlooked such an important thing.
Haha and all but the drive unit fluid is oil isn’t it?
