  1. Seatbelt prematurely fraying

    Rivian replaced the belts affected. Haven’t had the problem since. I wouldn’t touch the belts yourself. Let Rivian deal with them under warranty.
  2. More EDV Mobile Service Vans driving around now

    Good to see these driving around more frequently now.
  3. [Solved - high home HVAC use] Crazy electric bills from home charging. Is charger function to blame?

    $0.16 per kWh sounds amazing. We’re at $0.42 in the middle of the night and $0.83 during the day…. California ?
  4. NYT: Tesla chief executive’s polarizing statements have alienated some potential customers

    Logged into Rivian Forums for the first time in weeks to find this thread at the top…. Threads like this are why I stopped frequenting this site. Needless endless nonsensical arguing where no one is ever going to agree.
  5. Out of Spec seemingly confirms R1 refresh in about a month

    Been seeing R1S wrapped driving around Orange County for several months now. Nothing obviously different from first glance.
  6. Well, guess it was my turn. Hit by a red light runner.

    could just be glare. But very much looks to me like the other driver is holding a phone with bright screen as their airbag deployed.
  7. My Rivian Driver+ almost killed me

    semantics. car was clearly steering, accelerating, decelerating on its on as you can gather from my post. And it clearly didn’t work properly. To brush off the problem and say it’s “less credible” due to semantics is childish.
  8. My Rivian Driver+ almost killed me

    I was using the full driver plus. Not just highway assist. Edit: @VSG Not sure what you were trying to differentiate. Per Rivians website, Driver+ is the overarching system. Highway assist is a sub category within the system.
  9. My Rivian Driver+ almost killed me

    First few weeks into ownership (Dec. 2022) I was using Driver+ and was approaching a sudden slow down on the freeway. Initially my R1S started to slow down, but then suddenly it took off like I had fully pressed the accelerator (I did not) as if there were no cars stopped in front of me, I had...
  10. R2 Product Launch at Laguna Beach on March 7th!

    yes. Per the local “Nextdoor” website. The city received hundreds of letters asking for the city to decline the event, so Rivian canceled. What a slap in the face to Rivian. Spent ~$20M restoring a dilapidated historic building at the center of Laguna Beach only for residence to complain...
  11. Dumpster Truck can do Circumcisions!

    I accidentally rolled up the rear windows on the R1S without realizing my little (9 year old brother) had his hand out the window touching the upper part of the door above the window. I didn’t realize until he screamed and started crying. The window didn’t stop or bounce back down when it...
  12. Kia EV9. What many R1S buyers would be very happy with...

    Our local dealer has 6 of the EV9’s sitting on the lot. They aren’t selling as well off the bat as Kia was expecting. Should see some good deals on them this year. Test drove a top of the line GT trim ~$77k. The fit and finish is better than our R1S. Has much better in cabin tech than the R1S...
  13. Poor reliability – R1S

    Our R1S Launch Edition has been in for service 6 times. Between the parts, labor hours, and loaner vehicles (~2 months worth), Rivian has spent about as much on repairs as we paid with our original launch pricing. Seems like a money pit for Rivian. We also picked up a Tesla Model Y Performance...
  14. Loose exterior door trim - anyone else?

    Already had our window trim replaced twice. Continues to peal off. Told us at service they haven’t figured out a long term solution yet. On the one hand we hate to waist Rivian money by continuing to have it fixed. On the other hand it looks terrible and we are worried it will come off...
  15. Software Update 2023.46.0 is rolling out

    ? we’ve done all our updates since purchase while plugged in… no problems so far. ~13 updates and counting.
  16. I designed some 3D printed window shims to fix my Driver's side wind noise

    Any chance you are selling these? We don’t have a 3D printer but could use these for our front drivers window.
  17. 22” Continental Terrain Contact A/T tires resulted in a negligible INCREASE in efficiency (2.07 mi/kwh) compared to OEM Pirellis (2.04 mi/kwh)

    We just got Continentals on our R1S with 22’s. Have found the ride quality improved over the Pirellis. Extremely happy with the continentals.
  18. List your Rivian (Enterprise) provided loaner car during service

    Shows how everything is relative. $80 is what it costs to fill a Prius where we live. Would love to only pay $80 to fill a full size SUV. Nice rental.
  19. Windshield seal

    In addition to replacing the windshield, they removed and replaced the drivers door quarter window glass gasket and balanced and reset the drivers door. After all of that we still have a whistle in the drivers door on the freeway.
