Same issue in Gen 1 R1S here. Has been recurring since the Apple Music update.
Alexa keeps refusing to play things on Spotify even though the Spotify app is set as the default music source in the Alexa app profile. Resets used to make it work for a time but since the last update, it just...
Do they have other manufacturing capability or is the USPS contract back on market?
Would be amazing for Rivian to pick up and scale EDV and free them to focus on quality/profit on R1 and alleviate focus on volume on that tier (vs. R2/3 where they should focus on volume).
We traded in an Ascent to the R1S. It doesn't drive or park like it's as big as it's metrics (the video game style 360 parking is very cool and steering is great) and it's been wonderful for road trips with the kids and extended family when we have folks visit.
Only drawbacks:
1) My wife...
For folks who have had Spotify voice command stop working since the Apple Music roll out: I found that I had to reset the infotainment and then NOT USE APPLE, and then Spotify works consistently with Alexa.
I cancelled Apple, voice control is too valuable.
Alexa insists on mis pronouncing my and my wife's names in the Rivian despite pronouncing them correctly in the app on our phones...
She also patiently refuses to play music from Apple music from voice command even though it's linked in the app too.
So aggravating...
I picked up at Mahwah and it was great! They are only 20-30 ms apart and both in quiet low key areas.
I would prefer if they kept this way (delivering in Mahwah and using Blauvelt for test drives and service) so that Blauvelt can keep pace with the service needs of Bergen county and Westchester...
Just hoping they keep the 360 top down assist during parking! I've gotten so reliant on it now and have become obsessed with parking straight and centrally in spot!
I am waiting for a new FOB (they are on backorder) and have had to start using the card lately. I find that it's helpful to show people that the operation instructions are illustrated ON the card as I have had two humorous things happen in the past few weeks:
1. Was walking past garage where I...
I see them more and more here in Bergen County (NJ) - the sales pattern has got to be highly concentrated regionally looking at the wild market share in CA and what I see here in the Metro NY area...
Otherwise really hard to reconcile with the Q3 delivery figures...
I love the car and this is a constant worry. I usually park far from folks or at edge as folks have mentioned here.
If I am somewhere where I think folks are going to be parked for a while I sometimes try to park in between hoping people are more careful getting into than getting out of cars...
7 months in on 2024 R1S and we love it. Some minor stuff (like my chargeport getting stuck) but service via the app and at Blauvelt has been very responsive.
We love it.
