  1. 2025 R1S Tri-Motor MaxPac Dead/Severely Degraded

    The final diagnosis is broken front right axle half. Repaired and picked up this afternoon. Rare occurrence typically the result of rough off roading or a hard curb strike, neither of which this trailer queen has experienced.
  2. 2025 R1S Tri-Motor MaxPac Dead/Severely Degraded

    I've searched around to see if this issue has been addressed in the forum, but didn't find a fit. On Sunday 23 March, 2025 I had returned home in my R1S and was backing up in my driveway to park in the garage. I heard a loud "clunk" while creeping backwards; sounded as if I was driving down a...
  3. Two modes of entry is better than none.

    Lanyard with key card, never leave home in the Rivian without it hanging around your neck.
  4. Devastated… rear ended in my brand new week-old 2025 R1S

    Attorney from the outset is not extreme. The Insurance company for the at fault driver is unlikely to want to total the vehicle. Consider working through your company who then will subrogate through the at fault company. The reason this is important is your car is toast and Rivian will take...
  5. Does Rivian have what it takes to survive?

    Totally agree on all points. I took possession of my 2025 R1S Tri-motor about 2 months ago and have put about 3,000 miles on it. Every step of the purchase process was sloppy, slow, uninformed and two months after taking delivery Rivian is still trying to figure out how to fill out the...
  6. New Heavy Duty Aluminum Rival Skid Plates Installed! - EV Sportline

    Not a knock on their products, however, to be accurate RIVAL who designs and manufactures the subject skid-plates for Rivian R1S and R1T models and sold in this case by EV Sportline, is an international corporation with global headquarters in Dubai, United Arab Emirates and their products are...
  7. R1S driving in the snow

    Ditch chains. Buy snow tires... Nokian Hakka's R5, switch to snow mode when it gets deep, if really bad turn off traction control; if that doesn't do it, chains won't either. I drive on the Hakka's starting in Dec. and I don't take my R1S Gen 2 out of conserve mode until there's a couple...
  8. Gen2 - Clicking Noise and Loud Fan

    First sound is the heat pump compressor; totally normal. No clue on the 2nd sound, never heard it before. I too have a R1S Tri Gen 2.
  9. Get my new R1S, but all speakers make no sound

    If you want the speakers to work that's a monthly subscription. Did you pay for that?
  10. New Gen2 Key Fob now available in Rivian gear shop

    According to gear shop they're sold out when I tried to buy one roughly 10 minutes after I received the email this morning; checked back a couple hours later same same.

    I can stream over my phone through the bluetooth connection into my R1S, but that's pretty clunky.
  12. SiriusXM

    I wouldn't have any trouble with that on my end but there's a complete aura of confusion regarding Rivian. I've heard more than once the implication that there's something different about the Rivian set up and they're not familiar with it. I write this off as Rivian only wants to do it their...
  13. SiriusXM

    So another 45 minutes on the line with XM today and again they told me they aren't familiar with Rivian, it's new to them, and they don't know how to connect to my vehicle and that "they'll escalate it" and I should hear back in 7-10 business days. Pretty week all around. When I transferred to...
  14. SiriusXM

    It's not satellite based but cell phone based. As of last evening it does not work as I spent 2 hours on the phone with XM trying to transfer my lifetime subscription over with no success. Additionally what I was able to see within the application is nowhere near as seamless an operational...
