My steering wheel is rotated about 5 to 10 degrees counterclockwise. When I'm on the right side of the crown of the road, you can feel the steering pull right. On the left side of the crown, it pulls left. Totally normal. The steering wheel is rotated the same no matter what way it is pulling...

My R1T is limestone. There is something strange about the color. Depending on the light, it can look light grey or grey with blue or very light blue or something else. I like it mostly. I wish it wasn't quite so blue sometimes. The fact that it changes color is actually a cool feature. I wonder...

I wonder if Rivian has heard of Murphy's Law. If anything can go wrong, it will (shudder!). Having liquid-cooled screens seems like it is asking for trouble. Why not some air flow with maybe a fan or two?

I've had my R1T for a few weeks. I'm still learning what "normal" behavior is. Today I took my Rivian to the grocery store. The touch screen was on the select ride mode function. I guess the last thing I did when I was using it previously was switch to the normal drive mode. I started down the...

I thought I would follow up and mention that I found a free app on my phone that lets me play an entire album (mp3 files in my phone's memory) and stream it through the car stereo system. It sounds good. That's really mostly what I wanted. When I want to change albums I usually pull over and...

I never mentioned that another way to latch the right side is to push down on it hard until it latches. Another thing I didn't mention is that the right side is only about an eighth of an inch higher and you don't see a problem right away. If it's a common problem then it's probably a minor...

I've had an R1T for a few weeks now. About the only problem I've discovered so far is how the lid to the spare tire compartment closes. Of course, you close it manually. There are a couple of latches on each side. To close it you slam it quite firmly. When I slam it, the right side doesn't go...

I didn't know you could get something as bad as that repaired. That's certainly what I would do, especially if it would look better.

I I live in a rural area in central Utah. Today I needed to make a trip to Walmart in Ephraim, UT. It's a 22-mile drive from where I live. On the way a big truck went by and I heard a rock hit the windshield. It didn't sound so bad. I've heard worse on other cars. I thought I would check for a...

As a reaction to the over-emphasis on torque and power, I'm calling her Hamsta Powers.

I read a post by astonian about adding a Roadtop Carplay unit. They mentioned getting power by plugging a 12V adapter into a port under the center dashboard air vents. Later I went back and saw that the post was over a year old. I looked for a 12V port and can't find one. The user manual showed...

I'm a Windows guy and I use Media Player (sometimes). I found out something that could be useful. I copied some plain mp3 files into music in internal storage on my Android phone. I used a file browser to find the file. When I clicked the file, it asked if I wanted to use Youtube to play the...

First of all, I should say that all the kinks are worked out and it's working normally. A lot depends on the size of your wires. Mine are 6 gauge and will handle up to 55 amps. (Jeeden, you said change voltage and I think you mean change amps.) My circuit breaker is 50 amps. Jeeden is right...

I joined the forum yesterday and I'm impressed and delighted by all the activity. I asked a couple of questions and within hours I had several very helpful replies. That's great.

The Autel EVSE has a dial inside which can decrease the charging amps. To be ultra-safe, I decreased the charging amps to 30 amp. I think the Autel could apply the 80% rule itself. I found a setting in the Autel app that lets you adjust the charging amps. I think this is tied to the setting of...

There are several USB-C ports. This isn't a big problem, since you can get adapters. They seem to be only for charging. Can Rivian turn one or all of these into music stick readers by software only? Or is it a hardware thing?

I've had my Rivian for a week or two. Possibly my only disappointment is the lack of a port for connecting a USB memory stick for playing music. Every other car I know of can do this. Am I missing something? The bluetooth seems to only work with a phone. It seems that you are limited to...

First of all, I am not an electrician. I did all the wiring in my new home, so I'm not a newbie. Recently I installed a 240-volt circuit in my 200-amp box, which I have never done before. I used 80 feet of 6-gauge stranded copper wire and a 50-amp circuit breaker. Everything looks fine. The...
