  1. “Charging speed reduced” …but it isn’t

    I’ve noticed that I get the ā€œCharging speed reduced Slower due to cabin and battery cooling.ā€ whenever I start DCFC during the summer with the A/C on, yet the only time I see reduced speeds is when I’m charging at a high rate (over 150kW or so) which is throttled even during winter with the...
  2. Help: Insane dashboard rattle on mild washboard roads

    Seriously, this is old airport courtesy shuttle levels of bad and the Service Center says that nothing can be done about the dashboard. The short videos below the text are from our Gen2, and our dashboard looked almost this bad on our Gen1. The first 7 second video is regular speed and the other...
  3. California Gen1 R1S Rivian Black Logo All-Weather Mat Set

    We switched to a Gen2 so selling a lightly-used set of Gen1 (2022 through 2024) R1S All-Weather mats in all black. These mats are genuine Rivian and not modified in any way; Rivian offered black logo mats for a while and we liked them better than the yellow-logo mats. These will NOT safely fit...
  4. Be careful using “Prepare for fast charging”

    We’re in the high desert, the exterior temp says 101° and the battery shows 100°. I used the new Energy screen ā€œPrepare for fast chargingā€ button to lower the battery temp on the way to charge. I got a little chuckle at a minor coding error when the screen showed ā€œWarming battery for faster...
  5. This Class Action Opt Out Process Should be Illegal

    I did a quick search and couldn’t find a good match so please excuse me if this is redundant. I just read a postcard I got in the mail regarding a class action suit against Rivian from a class which includes stockholders during a certain window. While I would qualify, I don’t want to be part of...
  6. Does anyone else want Drive Mode pre-selection?

    I’ve bumped into issues where I wish that I could choose my Drive Mode settings (without the vehicle doing anything) and then commit the change with a button labeled, ā€œOK,ā€ ā€œDo it!ā€ ā€œMake it so,ā€ or whatever is on brand for Rivian. Why? Here are two examples: There are times when my Rivian...
  7. Rivian attending 2024 L.A. Auto Show and offering test drives

    I hadn’t heard about this until I received an email from the L.A. Auto Show with a subject line of: Welcoming back Porsche, Rivian, and More This was in the body: We go every year and it’s nice to see Rivian make a return!
  8. Giving up on keeping my Rivian?

    After just over a year of ownership and finally taking a real off-road adventure, I’m giving up on keeping my Rivian... looking like new. :cool: Seriously, we’re not intentionally trashing it, but now that we’ve scratched a wheel and scuffed the lower plastic trim on a door it’s going to take...
  9. Apple Shortcuts Actions Added?

    Maybe I missed something on here but I tried searching first. It looks like there are extra actions available for those of us with Shortcuts setup. Maybe they were added with a recent app update? Here are the options I see now: When I first setup my shortcuts, I know I didn’t have actions...
  10. Another benefit of upcoming blind spot view

    It just occurred to me that the blind spot camera feature will solve a turn signal issue that annoys some of us: not realizing the turn signal is on in some conditions. I find the monotone turn signal sound to be easy to miss at highway speeds, especially with noisy tires and/or audio playing...
  11. Will non-Tesla NACS EVs face limitations with Superchargers?

    If I missed earlier discussion about this please post a link to the relevant post or thread. I was wondering if future NACS-equipped Rivians, and other EV brands with native NACS support, will face the same limitations with Supercharging that CCS vehicles with the NACS adapter face today: no V1...
  12. Kudos to Rivian!

    How did they keep two entire products under the radar until this announcement in today’s world?! That was almost as impressive as the vehicles themselves. Bravo on all counts, Rivian!
  13. Critical Battery Error! DON’T PANIC

    The Setup We’re in Palm Springs for a 4-day weekend and after a side-trip to the high desert yesterday I went to charge today for the drive home tomorrow. I went to the Blink chargers, started charging, and then got to work on email while I waited. A short time later a Hyundai Ioniq 5 driver...
  14. First longish road trip

    We took our first long (a little over 560 miles total) road trip in our R1S this weekend, from Orange County to Paso Robles and back. Before leaving I removed our temporary spare and put our full-size spare behind the 3rd row, just in case. I used ratchet straps to secure it to the tie downs on...
  15. R1S Spare Tire Well: Velcro Strap?

    Does anyone know what this strap is for? There is a molded rectangular platform below it so I think Rivian was planning to store something there vertically but maybe they abandoned whatever they were planning. ?ā€ā™‚ļø Did anyone ever see a reference to something going there?
  16. Battery bank in place of camp speaker?

    Given the lack of any power points forward of the center console storage on newer builds and the opinion many seem to express that they don’t need a camp speaker, I wonder if Rivian (or someone else) could use the existing space for a removable battery bank with USB-C PD and 12V automotive...
  17. Why not put the battery temperature on the battery?

    I don’t understand why we have a line drawing of the battery and a whole tile devoted to battery temperature. Does anyone else think it would be better to do something like this crude mockup so that a tile is freed up for something else?
  18. Puddle lights with compass logo virtual in 360° view?

    I don’t think this has been discussed but maybe I’m not searching well. Has anyone else noticed that the puddle lights with compass logo are virtual in the overhead view of the vehicle? I can’t figure out why Rivian went to the trouble of doing this, but it’s an interesting detail. For...
  19. Camp Speaker Wi-Fi (not Bluetooth)

    I searched here and couldn’t find anything for this so I thought Iā€˜d create a new post. If this was discussed somewhere and I missed it please post a link and I’ll ask to have this thread closed. Maybe I never noticed this before but when viewing Wi-Fi networks on an iPhone, Rivian Camp Speaker...
  20. App Charging Session Info Time?

    Am I the only one who’d like to see a change in the time portion of the Rivian App? This is what I see: It took me 11hr 46 min to add 78 miles (39 kWh)… except it didn’t. The vehicle was connected to a charger for 11hr 46 min but it was only charging for 6 hours. At least I hope it was charging...
