  1. Gen2 retrofit with Qi2 charging pad - does not work

    Good to know. Doesn't seem worth the potential hassle.

  2. Noticeable lag in front/rear cameras in Gen 2, anyone else?

    On the latest software, I have noticed occasional camera lag on my Gen 2 as well. Mine is not as bad as OP though.

  3. Will Gen3 hardware be included with R2 Launch Edition later?

    Rivian put themselves in this situation by not launching with Lidar. A similar situation happened with OG R1 reservation holders when Gen 2 came out. Rivian allowed reservation holders to buy Gen 2 with OG pricing. Of course a lot of Rivian Gen 1 owners were butthurt.

  4. Cancelling my Pre-order, thoughts inside from test drive

    I stopped reading this after a few points. Not reasonable at all.

  5. 2026 R1S: Charge failure at Tesla chargers

    Did you try starting the charge from the Tesla app before plugging in? Sometimes plug and charge doesn't work.

  6. What’s Coming in 2026.15 Update, Including Rivian Assistant

    My Gen 2 suspension behavior changed in the last update. It takes a long time to full settle from Kneel by making a lot of noticeable adjustments. I hope this is fixed in the latest update.

  7. Can you guess the forum member this one belongs to?

    Wait until R2 comes out and SCs are even more slammed. I owned a Model X when the Model 3 came out and Tesla Service nose dived hard (no appointments, sloppy work, damaged car). I am expecting something similar with Rivian assuming the R2 sells well. Book your service appointments now.

  8. Can you guess the forum member this one belongs to?

    Saw this as well. My guess is this person is a non-Rivian enthusiast (enthusiasts are more forgiving). I can see a "regular" owner getting pushed to the edge with Rivian. Especially if they are coming from legacy brands.

  9. Gen1 vrs Gen2 door handle feel.

    Yes, we notice the rattling when closing and squeaking from the interior handle. This has been discussed a million times.

  10. SOLD 4 22” Super Sport wheels with tires.

    Any noticeable stability/handling differences when going from the staggered super sport wheels to the narrower square sport wheels?

  11. Siri can now interact with the app on an Apple Watch

    Is this through the Apple Watch App or Apple CarKey?

  12. 2026.03 Update will revamp Kneel Mode

    Wow. Lots of improvements. I assume the lower height will be equivalent to Lowest. Love the ability to toggle it. Hope it can be automatic Kneel in Sport mode.

  13. CHP Throwing Shade on Rivians (well, EVs at a minimum)

    Who's running out of charge in the middle of an intersection? The only excuse would be an LFP owner with an out of balance pack.

  14. Strange calibration issue on gen2 Max Pack - service has not seen this before

    Intertesting. I have never L3 charged my R1S to 100% only L2.

  15. Strange calibration issue on gen2 Max Pack - service has not seen this before

    I have 12k miles on my Gen 2 Max pack and have charged to 100% around 8-10 times. My 80% SOC is reading 326 miles which seems about right.
