Worse than dealing with someone's else insurance that represents the at fault party is when the at fault party's insurance is the same as your own insurance carrier. They tried at first to total my MX offering me 50% of it's value - claiming it was a smaller battery than the name plate. (I had...
Love those Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV 275/60 R20 as well, especially in the snowy San Juan Mtns. Range penalty is minimal compared to 22" OEM All Season.
thanks for the detailed analysis - agree with your decision. even though you may not need snow/ice performance the Platinums are terrible on snow/ice - and wet roads
the L2 Rivian chargers in Montrose Co are still at 0.18/kwh. So take a long coffee break at Looney beans or shop Natural Grocers / Target near by. At 36cents Rivian may not have covered DMEA's demand change or margin may have been minimal. Yes we want Rivian to survive!
Agree 100% with Sub that tires are most important. The AT tires are not really designed to optimize performance on snow and especially ice. I have lots of experience with M X ice studless snow/ice tires on my Tesla MX and ICE vehicles like 4-Runner, Outback, etc and they are excellent but you...
Suggest you review the many detailed suggestions discussed in this thread,

most of which has been provided by Mygrain and few others. The experience has been if you...
Agree - good possibility that it is hydraulic fluid from suspension. Jerseyff - check the metal mesh hydraulic lines to see if they are the source, especially near the fittings in the front wheel area. Hopefully SC gets you in soon since if this is the source will eventually get warning about...
Happy camper today since I just received my IRS refund check for 7500 plus almost 1k in interest in near record cycle time - sent paper based amended 2022 return (1040X/8936) in early Dec 2024 and included references to IRS bulletins and transition rule as recommended by Mygrain and others. Did...
give Rivian service a call since this may be leaking hydraulic lines - perhaps at the connection fittings or seals. this appears that a number of vins have the issue including Gen 2. I noticed the oil stain on my garage floor before I got the alert.
You are correct 2025 is tripping up Turbotax. When I try to hard code 2025 in the forms mode TX flags it. Appears the use case just isn't built into the 2022 version of TX.
I just filed a few days ago the old fashion way - paper 1040x and jan 23 version of 8936 using your suggestions about...
I have a Gen 2 DMax and my app does not have the capability to specifically drawn energy from the charger for preconditioning the cabin. this is a critical capability in winter, so hope Rivian gets this updated soon.
Tanuki68,
Thanks for sharing your experience on obtaining the 7500 credit for folks that have a 2022 binding purchase agreement. You mention you used Turbotax for your amended 2022 return. Could you provide any additional info using TX.
I have found 2022 TX to not have the up-to-dated...
Thanks - Appreciate if you keep us posted on the findings. Some Gen 1 vehicles did have a 12v battery issue with a number of postings about bricked vehicles. Supposedly, Gen 2 had some architecture changes to the 12v system that hopefully fixed that. Rivian told me at delivery only one 12v...
Let us know what Rivian tells you what the issue is. Otherwise we are just speculating. Hopefully it is something simple and not HVAC - since HVAC parts were backordered at least as of late August. What version of vehicle sw are you on - I'm currently on 2024.31.30
Sorry to hear those issues for you. Many early 2025 vin's have issues with HVAC and some of your faults indicators may suggest a HVAC problem. I had an early 2025 vin (474XX then 473XX) assigned to me only to be withheld by Rivian due to HVAC QC issues. I finally took delivery of 551XX on Aug 30...
Thanks Roadrunner appreciate the detail. Consistent to what the SC told you the HVAC and battery issue appears to be related from what i have seen on other posts for Gen 2. The denver SC is keeping my Gen2 R1S two extra weeks before deliver to fix the HVAC - what they told me. Appears many early...
