    Service Experience @ Phoenix Service Center

    Had a great experience with the Phoenix Service Center. My contact was on point throughout the process. Danielle got me settled down and assured me that Rivian will get everything taken care of with minimal disruption in my daily activities. They allowed for a large SUV allowance at...

    Keep the cabin cool in sunny / hot states with perforated vinyl on the roof

    In Arizona, I tinted (XPEL Prime XR Plus) all glass including the roof and windshield to try and reduce the insane temp in the cabin. Anything above 110 degrees the AC is close to useless for short trips and at 115 degreees outside, completely useless. So I did a thing. Added perferated vinyl on...

    Tint roof? Amount of heat let in? Opinions?

    In Arizona, I tinted (XPEL Prime XR Plus) all glass including the roof and windshield. At 115 degrees it is still no where near enough to even give the underpowered AC unit a shot. So I did a thing. Added perferated vinyl on the roof and that helped more than anything so far. $102 and about a 1...

    Rivian did do better than Carvana for my 2021 Ram 1500. They beat about $3000. At that point with the tax break it was a no brainer. Keep your chin up and see what they offer. Clean the trade in before you send in pictures. Be honest about door dings and road rash on the wheels. You should be fine.

    Rivian stock rallies toward a 4-month high after EV production more than triples in latest quarter

    So I took a few hundred shares off my books today. I will leave the cash in the account for a few months in case of a reversal. If not, I will take my profits and spend it so unwisely. I love a good 15% day. I'm still going long with 2000 shares, I believe this is a solid EV company that was...

    Proximity (un)lock off when home

    I noticed the same thing. Thought it was just user error but I usually don't have problems with technology.

    Does the frunk of your Rivian get hot to the touch? Or is this my first problem.

    Thanks, I am new to the EV world as well, maybe I will just put a ticket into the service center and get that piece of mind. I will eventually update this thread with what they say when I get it done.

    That is a great idea, good for Uber Eats to use and keep the food warm as they deliver. Or that pizza that keeps sliding all over the inside of the car.

    Took delivery of Red Canyon R1S from R1Shop without issues, you scared me into second guessing my decision.

    It took about 4 days. Totally was not expecting it but as I said. I asked politely and they said, let us see what they could do.

    I thought this was a good checklist from this forum. I could not find it in the search option but found it when I did a google search.

    Thanks for sharing. Now for my second question, why would you promote use of the fronk as a cooler when its that warm in there? LOL, just laughing to myself.

    It would be nice if you had an idea of when it was built, maybe with the last six of the vin#

    I did have to ask for access but they gave it to me without much convincing. I just called the Rivian support number on the website.

    Does the frunk of your Rivian get hot to the touch? Or is this my first problem.

    I noticed and wondered why the inside of the fronk was so hot, I do live in the desert but it seams a little hotter than I would expect. Is it me be cautious with my first EV or is a legitimate concern?

    Current Rivian owners - What’s one change that would make you happier?

    Being able to customize the driver and big screen to your preferences. I did not even noticed that until I finally picked it up last weekend.

    Are these commonly reported issues / problems still a thing?

    That is their entitled privalage as a BMW owner, it states it right in their purchase contract just like Prius contract states that drivers must pull in front of you and slow down in the far left lane.
