  1. Is your experience with the Rivian GPS Nav as Bad as Mine has been?

    Clearly it's not ready for prime time but I hope they're working on it. You can't even take a favorite destination and customize the name, on top of all of the weird ways it navigates you and totally fails to navigate you accurately to charging options when on a trip. It's amazing to me that...
  2. PASSENGER AIRBAG TURNS OFF

    I started a thread about this too. It appears to be caused by a seat sensor that is either not positioned properly or not sensitive enough. It requires direct weight of 110 pounds directly on the sensor area to recognize that there is a passenger in that front seat. I suspect there’s a design...
  3. Is this stock doomed?

    That’s a bet I wouldn’t make. Tesla will sooner be around than GM in a few years. I also believe Rivian will find its footing in another 24 months. People were saying that Tesla was doomed 7 years ago when I got my first Tesla. I was constantly told that they would be out of business in a year...
  4. Is your experience with the Rivian GPS Nav as Bad as Mine has been?

    I totally agree there are better third party nav apps than the one in the Rivian and the one in the Tesla, but I would not agree with anyone who says that the Tesla Nav app doesn't do the job when it comes to routing in terms of determining where you need to stop to charge, setting those places...
  5. Is your experience with the Rivian GPS Nav as Bad as Mine has been?

    I agree you can't rely on ABRP alone. It's a lot of work planning a long trip with my Rivian. ABRP is the beginning. I use Electrify America stops wherever I can, and their app (sort of) gives you information about their EV charger's operationality and availability. Nothing is like the Tesla...
  6. Is your experience with the Rivian GPS Nav as Bad as Mine has been?

    I think the only hope that it gets fixed is if Rivian puts the resources into the programming. I continue to hope that they will do that sometime soon. Us die hard fans are buying the trucks and pickups and are willing to use third party products to figure out our trip routing, but the people...
  7. Passenger Seat Not Detecting Passenger?

    I’m bringing it in to have them look at it in a little over a month. I’ll report back if they do anything to correct the issue
  8. Passenger Seat Not Detecting Passenger?

    If that is truly the case, seems ridiculous, but it is what it is. it’s still a problem the way their software works because when the vehicle doesn’t detect someone in the seat, the climate controls are disabled on the passenger side. That needs to be fixed.
  9. Passenger Seat Not Detecting Passenger?

    Seems like we are in the same boat. I’m betting their very low sensitivity setting is the culprit based upon my experience with the car, what Rivian told be about the weight necessary to register a passenger in the front seat, and from the responses I’m receiving.
  10. Passenger Seat Not Detecting Passenger?

    I looked for threads on this so I’m surprised to hear that there are more threads but happy (I think) to hear I’m not alone with this. I have to guess that part of the problem is the sensitivity is way too high. Why should it be any more than 60 pounds, if not less? 110 pounds with the sensor...
  11. Is your experience with the Rivian GPS Nav as Bad as Mine has been?

    So I went on my first 400+ mile trip with my R1S, so it was the first time I had to experience the GPS in any real way and I found it to be not-ready-for-prime time. Starting from the beginning of the trip at my departure, I put the destination in, and added a waypoint (i.e. I used ABRP to find...
  12. Passenger Seat Not Detecting Passenger?

    I have my new R1S for three weeks now, and while I don’t have a passenger in my front passenger seat daily, a few times now, when I have had someone in the front seat, I have noticed that the car interimittently has not detected a person in the front seat, which means the passenger’s side airbag...
  13. Cross bar issue - won’t latch on one roof anchor

    Thank you for the tip about removing the bottom of the foot and adjusting it with the hex wrench. I never would’ve figured it out had a not seen this thread. But even so, it was a nightmare trying to figure out the exact tension adjustment. Eventually I did it. Thank you to everyone who...
  14. Introducing RMaxx Running Boards & Rock Sliders for Rivian R1T / R1S from Team 1EV

    UPS similarly manhandled the shipment of a pair of crossbars that I ordered from Rivian a few weeks ago. When I got the box it was left dumped on my front porch with one side totally open. The keys to the crossbars were missing as well. If I had to bet they fell out when the box was damaged by...
  15. Introducing RMaxx Running Boards & Rock Sliders for Rivian R1T / R1S from Team 1EV

    From everything I'm reading in this chain, it seems that this company has a bad track record of keeping within the timeframes it promises, as much as those who have ordered from them have liked the product when it eventually arrived. They have apparently not learned yet that important sales...
  16. Introducing RMaxx Running Boards & Rock Sliders for Rivian R1T / R1S from Team 1EV

    Wow, you've been waiting since June. That's dedication! I put in an order a few weeks ago because the company said they anticipated having stock by October, but seeing everything I am reading here, I will be shocked if I see them before next June!
  17. Air Suspension Failure / Malfunction

    So sorry to hear what you’re dealing with. When my R1S suspension adjusts I can hear a low level ticking noise, which I have not minded but I’m (amongst other things) planning on having them look at when I have my appointment (they scheduled me for about 2 months from now). When a Rivian is...
