  1. Rivian, PLEASE fix this part of Highway Assist

    Increase the follow distance gap. On Gen 1 spin the right scroll wheel forward or back while in driver+.
  2. Front suspension fail

    I think the dampers are made by Monroe I believe; not known for their quality. Air springs could be Firestone as others have said.
  3. Rivian, PLEASE fix this part of Highway Assist

    There are several cues that the driver assist doesn't do. I sent constructive feedback months ago. In the past, my feedback was integrated into updates. No luck on this. Human drivers communicate awareness to passengers and other drivers of potential dangers by nudging, as you mentioned...
  4. Upgrading Gen 1 (14mm) Tie Rods to Stronger Gen 2 (16mm) Tie Rods

    Honestly I think you are better off putting together a set of 16mm (Ford Expedition/Freightliner) spares for $50 each. https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/tie-rod-upgrade-cheap-new-compatible-parts.60971/post-1049348
  5. Tie rod upgrade, CHEAP!! New compatible parts!

    Ok cool. Worst case I take another 1/4" off both. There's plenty of threads joining everything.
  6. Tie rod upgrade, CHEAP!! New compatible parts!

    Building on Ed's explanation, I built a set of these aftermarket 16mm tie rods from Rock Auto as a complete replacement for the stock 14mm ones. Moog EV460 Dodge Freightliner 2500/3500 Inner rod 15" $10 each Moog ES3695 Ford Expedition Outer 5" $30 each (It's possible that a Ford Expedition...
  7. OnePlus phone PAAK problems

    It's likely a power saving issue where the app is put to sleep. My wife has a OnePlus Open and it seems to work without issue. I assume you are allowing notifications and full run in background permissions?
  8. Stupid previous owner = $$$ L2 installation

    We've been installing these for tenant units behind GFCI breakers. We are not going to supply or maintain EVSE's in a non shared situation. Tenants can supply their own. They've been in service from some years. Some units only have 50A panels hence 14-30s to keep things balanced.
  9. What to do when key card takes forever to unlock R1T?

    NFC cards have a small embedded chip and a thin set of antenna wires that run the perimeter of the card.
  10. user must allow "precise location data collection" to use Navigation

    Even non connected cars effectively have have flight data recorders. You'd be shocked to see what can be downloaded after an accident. Not just how fast your were going but where and when you may have lifted or braked or steered all laid out in time. The Rivian is far far beyond that and...
  11. Coast to coast race: Model Y vs R2 (ABRP simulation)

    I prefer a bigger battery over faster charging. The range outlasts me for a longer stop anyway. This comparison shows that the travel time is statistically the same. The range between the two is also the same. I gave up on ABRP a long time ago. I find it a convulted app. Actually I just get in...
  12. Tie rod upgrade, CHEAP!! New compatible parts!

    I've been wheeling for 40 years. Seen lots of carnage. I also used to build and sell sway bar disconnect systems for Toyotas. I found that anything less that 1/2" (12mm) hardware would break or bend when wheeling. That was just for sway bar end links. I've field welded my share of steering parts...
  13. Burbank Service Center nonsense

    Chances are the tire shop rattled it tighter on accident trying to take it off. Studs are quick to change.
  14. Stupid previous owner = $$$ L2 installation

    To have some random person say you need this or that size panel is a disservice. Without doing a load calculation on the panel, there is no way properly advise on what is possible. My 100 year old 3bed 2 bath has a 100A (modern) panel and been charging for years at 40A. Also have installed EV...
  15. Poll: Should Rivian Consider a 3-row R2 model?

    I had a third row "Little Seats" for our 4Runner. They are long gone now. https://web.archive.org/web/20080826001219/http://www.littleseats.com/
