Well, I guess I have 7 more years and 133,000 more miles left before it's coming out of pocket.

Exactly the same. Sounds like engineers need to figure out half-shaft designs for EVs. Way more torque than ICE.

Did you hit a pothole or was this the vehicle on a smooth surface?

How good could this be for $25,000?

Those are ball bearings hitting metal splines with approximately 1750 lbs. per wheel. You're gonna feel it.

I'm aware, but the locals who have been in the area for generations think climate change is a hoax and airplanes are spraying chemtrails.

That part of the country has the worst EV adoption. Half of the population believes in UFOs and thinks the gobermint is out to get them. You're better off with gasoline.... pretend it's 1987, because that's how far behind that section of the country is.

All State charges me $520 for 6 months on the R1T.

@ $25k this thing is going to be sub KIA quality.

My dual Motor was at 2.52 before winter at 10,000 miles. Now down to 2.10 lifetime..... winter + 1000 miles of towing took its toll.

Do you have a full electric drive-train or is the engine connected to the wheels?

The smart move would be for the US government to help our American brands secure funding, grow our charging network and source materials to develop our own brands to compete. Oh wait.... we had that until Jan 20th.

What upgrades?

Let's hope they don't do any major changes to the platform and maroon us gen 1 & 2 owners with obsolete noisy half-shafts. As long as the R1s share half-shaft part # with new builds -- there's hope.

This is good to hear. I always figured a solution would come from this. The technicians at the metro Detroit SC almost methodically knew how to handle my suspension noise issue back when I first brought it in. "It's a complicated suspension and the noise is normal" They did handle the jounce...

The only fix for the chattering is packing grease in the bearings and that only lasts for a few hundred miles. Unless we get new half-shafts it's just the way it is.

I should have just asked others who have a dual motor R1T. What half-shafts PT# have they seen on recent work orders.

So PT00087074-D is not the current half shaft? I'm seeing a different part number on recent service order sheets. PT00055489-G is the new part #? Does the R1T and R1S have different part #s? Quad versus dual?

I was hoping this would be changed with a software update and 2 of them have come and gone without a fix. Looks like I'm forced to waste some Rivian dollars on this. (Stock holder here)

There's very little competition for pricing with charging. Most of us don't have 2 to 3 different charging options within a 10 mile radius.
