This is what Microsoft Copilot says when I asked about your pre-conditioning of the battery:
No, it is not possible to pre-condition the battery in a Rivian by just plugging it into a Level 2 charger.
Cabin Preconditioning: You can precondition the cabin using the Rivian navigation app...
Sorry for your problems. We had a similar problem when we took delivery of our R1S. Good weather at delivery, but A/C & Heat not working when we needed them. Service center had the vehicle for 2-3 weeks and finally returned it saying that the problem was that the heat pump was under-charged...
Your poll's math doesn't work! It's dividing the responses between the R1S & R1T. It needs to add the "yeses" and "nos". When I looked, it was R1T 56.8% + R1S 30.1% = 86.9% yes!! vs 8.2% no.
Thanks for the pictures and the review. However, are you sure that you got the XXL and not just the XL? I'm looking at getting a Thule Motion 3 and was trying to decide between the XL and XXL. The XXL is listed as 91-3/8" long, which would have put it all the way over your 3rd rail, according...
Two comments/questions: 1) Doesn't your insurance cover windshield replacement? 2) Why not have someone like Safelite replace the windshield instead of going 2 hours to service center? Most glass replacement companies come to you.
Our A/C and heat did not work when we received our R1S. Rivian said that the heat pump system was undercharged. After they charged the system, it still didn't work correctly, but it was very loud like yours. So we took it in again, and Rivian service said that the heat pump system was now...
The key fobs sell out pretty fast considering "nobody" wanted them!! It's pretty frustrating that we have to pay $500 extra for key fobs for the Rivians.
Thanks for posting this. I have wasted a couple of hours trying to figure out what was happening here. My girls sit in the middle row and the boys in the back row. The boys keep complaining about the vents blowing cold air when they are already cold. I see exactly what you posted in the...
When we ordered our 2025 R1S last August, the Dark Ashwood was a $700 adder for Large & Max packs. We specifically watched for the Dark Ashwood because a lot of the builds at that time were Black Mountain without Dark Ashwood.
I wrote the note about my wife's iPhone having the same audio problem as you, but my iPhone working perfectly with the audio on our Rivian R1S.
You could also try turning off the Rivian app on your phone and activating the Rivian from the KEY CARD ONLY and see if the audio / speakers work then.
We have the same problem, but only with my wife's iPhone. A glitch in the connection software between the iPhone and the Rivian makes the entire speaker/microphone system not work. My iPhone does not have any problem. This is why it could pass QA. You could try rebooting your phone or...
We have the same problem, but only with my wife's phone. There is some kind of software glitch between her iPhone and Rivian that not only causes her phone not to work with the speaker system, but the entire speaker system doesn't work so that she is unable to listen to music. Restarting her...
In California, you typically pay a use tax instead of sales tax when you lease. So, you avoid paying the sales tax on the entire vehicle, which lowers the lease payment and has some time value to the money. If you leased the vehicle for the entire term and turn it in, you will have never paid...
Press to Unlock just started working on our Gen 2 R1S with the Halloween update. It's press to unlock only. Actually, sometimes it is hold your fingers on the sensors for 5-8 seconds to unlock. Plus, putting your fingers on the sensor again when it's open does not lock it
