  1. Rivian R1S wrecked... 4 days after delivery! (but you should see the other guy...)

    Well, we should all be so lucky as to get in a brawl with "the Church lady" LOL. Just the light bar - wow.... Glad to hear you had a positive experience with your service as well. I am trying to manage my own expectations, but y'all are giving me hope it might not be as cumbersome as I...

    Oh wow! That's a much quicker turnaround than I would have thought -- gives me some hope!!! Thank you for sharing your experience!!
  3. Rivian R1S wrecked... 4 days after delivery! (but you should see the other guy...)

    So glad everyone was physically ok in your instance as well!!!! And amazing that it looks like only the paint on yours was impacted (especially in light of the looks of the other car!)! Hopefully the timing to get it back to 100% won't take nearly as long :)
  4. Rivian R1S wrecked... 4 days after delivery! (but you should see the other guy...)

    Oh no! 6 months?? I hope that isn't the case here, but you never know.... I'm keeping my expectations low JIC. At least it's drivable for now, I guess, and again, everyone is ok physically, so at the end of the day that's what truly matters...
  5. Rivian R1S wrecked... 4 days after delivery! (but you should see the other guy...)

    Yikes!! Sounds like the long lead parts and repair time are not isolated... Here's hoping we're both back on the road with beautiful R1S' again as soon as possible!!!!!!
  6. Rivian R1S wrecked... 4 days after delivery! (but you should see the other guy...)

    Honestly not sure - I guess just that since it's a relatively new vehicle and they are still gaining experience with all the nuances that go into getting all the sensors and whatnot back up and running? I'll do more digging on the timeline when they get back to me with the quote and we get...
  7. Rivian R1S wrecked... 4 days after delivery! (but you should see the other guy...)

    Will definitely keep you posted as to what we hear back from the collision shop RE: the frame. Fingers crossed there is no impact to it!!!! And RE: the lights blinking, that was a question I asked when we picked up the car, and the response was that yes, the brake lights do illuminate when...

    That's great guidance -- this is my first ever EV, so definitely some lessons learned on my end as well. Thank you!!!!

  10. Rivian R1S wrecked... 4 days after delivery! (but you should see the other guy...)

    You're right -- "damaged" is the far better word - thank you for that! And as for the Audi driver, proof there are still good people out there in the world :).
  11. Rivian R1S wrecked... 4 days after delivery! (but you should see the other guy...)

    Here's the Audi... 2015 A3 4-D. At least air bags and other safety devices operated as designed and the driver walked away!
  12. Rivian R1S wrecked... 4 days after delivery! (but you should see the other guy...)

    Thankfully everyone walked away without a scratch!!! While I wanted to be so angry, the first thing the other guy did was leap out and ask if I was okay :)
  13. Rivian R1S wrecked... 4 days after delivery! (but you should see the other guy...)

    So as my luck would have it, I got rear-ended on day 4 of ownership after waiting 3+ years for delivery -- and ON MY WAY to the shop to get the stealth wrap put on no less. Sometimes you just have to laugh because that's all you can do... That being said, even though I am obviously not at all...
