Vent windows rarely works

[Surferdude]

Always works when I use it. Maybe your vehicle doesn't have great cell reception? Do other remote controls like locks work reliably?

That's what's odd. The other functions like pop frunk or trunk work almost all the time while parked in the exact same spot. It just struggles with the windows.

You can vent without unlocking the vehicle - I do it all of the time. I wouldn't want to remotely unlock my ride, even for a couple of seconds, without being able to see it.

Well, yes, unlock with prudence. The vent windows option usually works most of the time; however, sometimes, I receive a message that the windows won't open. It is then when I do an unlock, which always allows immediate venting.

Josef has helped me a couple times, he's great!!

Hitting the fan button will engage the climate control in the vehicle (usually for A/C). You can also vent all four windows from the app:

If the windows are vented, you'll see an option to close them instead.

Thanks for the note - It didn't work for me once over Memorial Day weekend and I just gave up, attributing it to cell coverage either where I was or where I had parked the Rivian. If it happens again I'll try the unlock, vent, lock trick.
