  1. 2026.03 Update Pushed! Now Installing

    I have had a number of crashes after installing. Not full shut downs, but infotainment freezes and then resets, after install. No such issues on the prior version. This update appears to have created some problems for the infotaiment system. Launch mode also caused a front halfshaft to...
  2. Second Launch Mode Use in Gen 1 R1S Caused Turtle Mode, No Front Power/Regen

    Fixed under warranty, tow was covered and a rental car was provided. Failed front driver side halfshaft that disconnected from the drive unit. A bit of a hassle since the service center is about 2 hours from my house, so I had to drive there to pick it up. Not Rivian's fault, though. I also...
  3. Second Launch Mode Use in Gen 1 R1S Caused Turtle Mode, No Front Power/Regen

    Updated to the 26.03 software late Friday night. Drove it with no issues all day, did a launch up to like 70 mph with the kids yesterday, still no issues. This morning, I did another launch, with a max speed of 67 mph, and then switched to AP mode, and got on the highway like normal. Half a...
  4. Dumb Question - Register Tires for Warranty?

    I got some Michelins installed about a month ago. Love them, the LTX M/S2s, 115H load rating on my R1S. This will sound crazy, but this is actually the first set of tires I have needed to put on a car. Every other car I have had has been sold before needing new tires, or it's been a company...
  5. Is anyone else frustrated with Alexa?

    Just had success with Alexa controlling Spotify again. On most current software, gen1 RIS. Hopefully it continues.
  6. Michelin Defender LTX M/S 2 275/50/22 115H Tire Pressure

    I just had these installed at Discount Tire (no issues with the 115H rating), and I am curious, what pressure is everyone running them? I am thinking sticking with the normal 48 PSI would be good, but has anyone had success somewhere else? 2023 RIS Quad if it matters.
  7. Any Success with Small Claims/Prosecuting with Gear Guard video?

    I think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what I'm trying to do. Enjoy your ivory tower though.
  8. Any Success with Small Claims/Prosecuting with Gear Guard video?

    Victim blaming like you read about. Holding someone accountable for their actions is a pillar of society. Letting this guy get away with it (which is really what this post is about, advice on how to ID him) would just let behavior like this spread. It was a first day of school open house, so I...
  9. Any Success with Small Claims/Prosecuting with Gear Guard video?

    We live in a society. I''m not going to sue anyone, I just was wondering if anyone has had success getting money out of someone with Gear Guard footage.
  10. Any Success with Small Claims/Prosecuting with Gear Guard video?

    Got a door ding from someone the other day, and I would like to hold him accountable. It happened during an elementary school open house, so I believe I can figure out who he is, since his kid goes to the same school as mine. Unfortunately I don't have video of the moment of impact, but the...
  11. Is anyone else frustrated with Alexa?

    Have the fixed it's inability to control Spotify? I stopped using it completely after that feature broke.
  12. Transition between Regen and Power no longer smooth/quiet

    2023 R1S Quad, 20k miles. 2025.22.01. It's developed a click/clunk/thud noise, when letting off/on the throttle, as the vehicle switches from regen to power delivery. My understanding is there is maybe a washer fix for this? This is definitely new, when the vehicle was new, it was smooth and...
  13. 2025.18.01 installing! Have you received the update?

    I have been installed for about an hour. Music sounds different..... Not sure if it's worse or better, but different. Energy app is cool. Display changes on driver screen are negligible.
  14. Where to get replacement plastic trunk clips?

    I'm going to bump this as I am in need of one replacement clip, like OP's photo. Anyone have a line on a suitable replacement?
  15. Another ‘Murdered’ (Totaled) Rivian - a sad story with a good ending

    I also have new car replacement with Nationwide. I'm curious, did you have a G1 Quad, or Dual? If Quad, what did they replace it with? I'd be happy with a Tri as that's basically comparable, but wondering if they tried to put you into a Dual. I wouldn't accept that downgrade.
