Warranty Registration I would register the warranty on XPELs website. They ask for VIN. Site says warranty is transferrable but it doesn't outline any process for transfer so I assume they just have the VIN and verify.

There's a lot of people who didn't purchase with early adopter mindset. They purchased because they are rich and wanted to appear cool (and rich). I think that is a lot of the luxury car segment. There will be different issues with the mass market, but undeserving levels of entitlement won't be...

I have a whole home surge protector which probably covers this. A year or two ago I watched a fireworks show of several electrical pole transformers explode in consecutive fashion within some view from my house in South East Michigan. My Rivian was plugged in and my power went off. I unplugged...

Although I can't answer this question, I will chime in to say even my Gen 1 Launch edition wristband did not always work with my Gen 1 Launch edition R1S. After a couple years of my wristband sitting in a drawer, I took it out again to try it, and it didn't work at all. I had the service center...

Here is the answer. If this works for you, maybe edit your original post to show this solution so anyone else trying to troubleshoot can also find this answer faster.

@mpshizzle Thank you. I kind of wish we didn't have to follow forums or influencers to troubleshoot our cars. I mean, I still accept it as an early adopter, but I can't imagine this blowing over well with mainstream users.

I've been experimenting with a mounted Starlink mini in my R1S last couple months. Kinda doesn't work when the car is under a roof or anything sooo.... good luck with that. Frankly, Rivian should have made the switch at least a year ago. I'm mildly concerned they won't offer a retrofit when the...

Where was this acknowledged by Rivian? A bug that changes my privacy settings or doesn't reflect a customer's selection is not good at all. I had Driver+ turned on in those settings but it still wasn't working. After a soft restart this morning, my vehicle said it was sharing data analytics and...

I noticed on mine, I still can't get it to navigate to "John Smith's house", which seems like something it should be able to do. Calls are fine. But the integration into navigation would be better if it could read the contact's saved addresses.

🤢🤮

I've thought about doing this with my 22"s...but I really want to do it with a set of dune 20" wheels for the rally car look.

I didn't want to cook off my R1S tail gate.

I bought one of the original ones from the Kickstarter. Didn't get a chance to try it since it unfortunately arrived later than promised, at the very end of Fall last year. The fuel type was different than the kickstarter page advertised too.. I notice this "pro" version has two stove tops. What...

Nice. Madison Heights SC has always been friendly and accommodating for me. I am past warranty so all I ask for now are Uber credits back to my house. Their new set up inside the bay is generally better, though sometimes quite loud. Never made sense to me that anyone coming into the main...

This article is the most bloggy blog I've ever seen. More webpage ads than text. More slant than facts. Tesla will be stuck at Level 2+++++ until LIDAR is brought in, at least. Too many edge cases in poor weather and visibility conditions. I used to think regulations would hold it up...
