  1. Major service improvement, V3 powered tonneau, and other musings about R1S vs R1T, and more!

    I've had a number of service events, and have mostly had slower service than expected. My previous PTC replacement took almost a month to book, and then took them 17 days to do along with a couple of other things like the AC TSB. On Thursday, I started a support request for a second PTC...
  2. 20" Inch Nitto Grappler A/T tire separations--three so far!

    I've got a bit over 20k miles on a set of five, and am about to have my third separation replaced. Discount Tire, of course, makes this easy and pretty inexpensive ($88 to renew the tire coverage plan). But it makes me wonder WTF is going on here. Four of them were from one batch/week, and...
  3. The dark AT wheels were silently changed so you don't know what you need/are getting

    Idiots. I'm used to tiny part number changes from every other vehicle vendor when they make a revision. But Rivian? Nah. Fuck you, that's why. I'm scheduled to have this installed in two hours, not not sure what to do. .
  4. Rivian AEB failure and crash

    She turned left in front of us while driving straight in an intersection. The truck did NOTHING to help. In contrast, years ago, my Tesla prevented me going into an intersection when a red light runner was coming from the far right. And that was a 2019 with the old hardware and software. Am...
  5. iOS 27 confirmed working with Rivian app and as a key

    I installed iOS 27 dev beta 1 and everything just worked. Didn't have to redo any pairings or anything. iPhone 17 Pro, Gen 1 R1T.
  6. No auto-locking since the last upgrade

    MOD NOTE: This might belong in the electronics subforum but please don't move it, I can't access my own threads in that forum (or any). Or, please fix that problem. I've done a full reset and infotainment reset. Since the update lasts week, my Rivian won't auto-lock reliably. It didn't work...
  7. Anyone know Rivian's warranty policy on cracked wheels?

    Just had this happen. It hasn't been off road in months. Hasn't been run into a curb, that I can see on the sidewall, and also the crack is on the inside. I haven't started a service incident or anything. I'm at a Discount Tire real close to the SC so I might just go and ask.
  8. Truck bed tent fit for R1T

    I'm considering getting one, but the dimensions of the bed are rather unusual. Wondering if anyone has used one and has experience with fit. The bed is one of the shortest on the market with the tailgate closed. But the tailgate is huge. I'm looking at the Gladiator in comparison because...
  9. A true luxury is having cold drinks always at hand

    Refrigerators hate to be out of level, and like most, this was annoyingly noisy when just laying on the seat. So I 3D printed a wedge to level it. And it would slide around a lot, plus would be a deadly projectile in a crash, so I printed a seat belt guide to lock it in place. I put the...
  10. "I would never want to be stuck waiting for an EV to charge"

    I bet a few of these are the same people who say they'd never want to be stuck waiting for an EV to charge. Hahahahaha. Meanwhile I leave full every day, never have to do this, except on a road trip. I did the math once on the amount of time I didn't spend at gas stations, 8 minutes at a...
  11. Gear tunnel mod to make the doors pop open (w/ magnets)

    I use the tunnel a lot, and got tired of the stupid doors being hard to use.
  12. Tesla self-driving is so much safer, you get an insurance discount for using it

    Most people already knew ADAS is far safer than meatbag drivers, here's some actuarial evidence with money behind it.
  13. Arizona Sold: Rivian wall charger brand new in box $350

    $350 with local pickup or cost of ground shipping. It's 32 pounds and 21x21x10 so you can calculate it. For example, to Southern CA it is $42.28. It's a lot more for long distances though.
  14. An unexpected new extended service option I was offered today

    I am looking to refi and bring our rate down. I was given this option for extended warranty coverage as an aside. It is exclusionary bumper to bumper coverage, mostly mirroring the OEM coverage. I have to look more deeply, but at first glance it seems to be a better deal than the EV-specific...
  15. Arizona Sold: Free all weather mats in NW Phoenix

    Pick up only please, just North of Happy Valley on 67th Ave. They came with the truck but I don't use them. I also have an R1T roof shade and front center console tray to give away.
  16. Rivian's smart software logic saves me from myself

    I had the wipers out in service mode. I had to make a trip to the bathroom, to you know, drop something off. As we all do (don't lie) I got my phone out for some entertainment during the process. I also looked at my charge stats to see what I had used after a road trip. When I was done, I...
  17. I installed a gasoline engine in my Rivian

    Who wants to start guessing at the real world MPG this delivers?
  18. Another damn bug? No auto-lock after leaving the truck open for a while

    Mods: Please don't move this thread. This may belong in the subforum for BT and such, but my account has a problem where I can't read my own threads in that forum, and nobody will answer me about fixing that. I can duplicate this issue every time. It's something I do somewhat often, as I...
  19. Review: TWRAPS floor storage organizer | center console tray

    I like it a lot, and recommend it. Rarely do I have no notes or wish items for a product, but here we are. It's so configurable even a princess like me couldn't find something it could do better. https://twraps.com/products/floor-console-organizer-for-rivian-r1t-r1s
  20. Well Rivian, I'm stumped

    The front tires were off the ground. Goddamn people shooting vertical video missed it though. Vertical video must die. Even more ridiculous when shooting a huge horizontal scene.
