Since the new update (2025.14.01), I am unable to start the vehicle (Gen1 R1S Quad) when I get in with my phone. I am always having to use the key card. I think this is the case when the vehicle wakes up from sleep mode because sometimes, the PAAK is recognized fine during the day when I am...
Folks,
Recently (since the last software update), I'm having frequent issues with the key fob and phone (pixel 9). Car unlocks fine when approaching but it won't allow driving saying that it cannot find the key. I have to use the key card to start driving. On other occasions, when the key fob...
I need to get new tires for my R1S. Costco is my usual go-to but they don't have the 22" HL Michelin Defender LTX M/S and will not install the XL which is what I want. I can buy the XL variant from tirerack but could use recommendation on where to go to get the tires installed. Looking for a...
Last few weeks, we have had snow and rainy weather- ie just a lot of water. I have been noticing that every morning, when I engage reverse to pull out of the garage, there is a loud metallic noise akin to the parking brakes disengaging. The first few times, I thought it was just the moisture...
I have been noticing that when I am at full lock (parking lots, going around traffic circles etc), the front tires seem to slip. It happens on dry but certainly more on wet roads. I have about 13K miles on the tires (22" bright) and they seem fine - no signs of excess wear. The tire pressures...
I had my R1S in for service for a set of trim/nuisance issues and Rivian added a "amplifier replacement" item to the work order. Service rep could not tell me what it was but said that my VIN had this TSB associated with it. Prior to the service, I had no audio issues and I would listen to...
Any ideas on how to force BGE to add Rivian to their list of approved chargers so that customers can qualify for rebates and lower EV charging rates? They have a handful of EVSE chargers and car manufacturers on their approved list but alas, Rivian isn't. Calls to their customer service or...
My R1S' AC sounds a lot worse now with the latest SW upgrade than previously. The AC was OK previously, a few incidents of the loud fan that a stop and start of the AC would rectify. Now, every start of the car begins with my fans making a racket that gets progressively worse (like a plane...
I need to get my Rivian EVSE installed and in need of a good electrician to do this. My electrical panel is at the opposite end of my house from my garage so its going to be an adventure (pun not intended). So if you have any contacts to share, please do as I need to get a couple of quotes and...
I finally took delivery of our R1S and its worth the wait. My turn to contribute to this community that has kept me educated, engaged and entertained for these past 28+ months.
Cliff notes:
- Ordered Nov. '20, picked up Mar 30, '23 at Richmond VA. EL Cap/OC/22" Launch edition Vin 67XX. Build...
Some states require a spare to be included such as Maryland (https://govt.westlaw.com/mdc/Document/N950C8D90957E11DFB69DFF2602E6B930?viewType=FullText&originationContext=documenttoc&transitionType=CategoryPageItem&contextData=(sc.Default))
Is Rivian including spares for vehicles sold in these...
I keep seeing comments about ride issues with R1S and how Rivian needs to "tune" it further. Comments seem to indicate that the shorter wheel base is the reason. However, what I am really curious about is what it means to "tune" the suspension to remove the kinks. I would expect that that...

2022 Rivian R1S Has Appeal, but the R1T Pickup Drives Far Better
Startup automaker Rivian's electric SUV model is impressive, but not as impressive as the company's R1T pickup.
While I am happy to see our fellow R1T members get their calls and trucks, us R1S reservation holders need a place to record those elusive Guide contacts that I hope will arrive soon. So, if anyone with a R1S reservation has been contacted, let us know so we can get our hopes up as well.
Any idea where these are being sourced from? I thought I read somewhere that these were Bosch built but can't find it. Ran across marketing material for Bosch's eaxle (https://www.bosch-mobility-solutions.com/en/solutions/power-electronics/eaxle/) which got me wondering if these are what Rivian...
Does anyone have insights into what Rivian is using to power their MCU and Driver+ modules and what embedded OS they built their UI on? As I read about the "laggy" behavior of the maps, I am starting to wonder if this is all SW (still being ironed out) or whether there is an underlying HW...
