    Location of charge port and NACS (Tesla) charging

    Does anyone know if Rivian has plans to relocate the charge port on the R1? Seems like left rear quarter panel would be smart given the parking configuration of supercharging stalls. Maybe on the R2? As has been covered in other threads when superchargers open up to other vehicles, R1...

    Power Gauge units

    I think someone might have mentioned this in another OTA thread several months ago. Since then some OTA updates have come out, but they have not addressed one potentially informative feature. Would anyone like to have units on the Driver Display Power Gauge? Units for power use and regen...

    Accelerator pedal clicking on and off when maneuvering very low speed

    When I am pulling into my garage or maneuvering my R1S at very low speed (essentially trying to creep forward or backward), I can feel and hear the accelerator pedal click "on and off". I am not sure this has something to do with the brake hold, but it feels like a cheap switch going on an off...

    Seat slides a little when accelerating normally (not launching)

    I searched the forums but couldn't find anything on seats sliding. Has anyone experienced their driver's seat sliding back upon gentle/normal acceleration? It probably only slides 0.5cm, but enough to feel. I noticed it today for the first time, in my 3 week old R1S (260 miles) as I was...

    You're "cool" if you own a Rivian and do this:

    From the WSJ. At first I thought this article was a humor piece, but maybe not? Rivian owners would be the coolest! I plan to hook my Rivian carabiner key to my belt loop. LOL. THIS SUMMER, the hottest men’s accessory might be a front-door key. Or a car fob, an AirPods case or anything else...

    Dear Rivian Engineers who worked on the Air Conditioning

    Disclaimer- I live in Phoenix where it’s pretty warm right now. However, the 5 other cars in my household: 2014 Jeep grand Cherokee, 2017Jeep wrangler, 2014 Ford Escape, 2017 Porsche Cayman and 2014 Tesla model S blow COLD air within 3-5 mins of driving-even in 110+ heat. Engineers: Please...

    EVgo autocharge+ and Rivian

    Although 95% of my charging will be at home, I want to set up some accounts at charging networks since we don't exactly know when we can charge at Tesla's SuperChargers. At the EVgo website, it looks like autocharge+ (seems most similar to Tesla: just pull up, plug-in and charge) is not...

    Navigation / Map updates?

    Does anyone know when navigation maps get updated? Looking at satellite view, I think the current map is >4 years old. I work in a building that was finished and occupied 3 years ago. The satellite map shows my location as pre-construction (graded, but no structure) and the building took 1.5...

    Air Conditioning vents

    I live in Phoenix, AZ area (Scottsdale) where it's quite warm in the summer. Because car interiors can be hellishly hot, I like the AC to blow on my face when I first get in the vehicle. However, the center vents are low on the dash and I can't get that center vent to blow air high enough so...

    Charging from 50amp NEMA 14-50 plug

    When I plug my Model S into the NEMA 14-50 outlet via NACS connector in my garage, it charges at 25-26 miles per hour. When I use the same NEMA 14-50 outlet to charge my new R1S with Rivian's CCS charging cable that came with the vehicle, it charges at only 12-14 miles per hour. Does anyone...

    Not allowed to drive R1S before purchase

    I am scheduled to pick up my R1S on Monday (pre-order Sept 2019), so I asked the Rivian person who texted me that my R1S was almost ready for pickup at the Phoenix Service Center if I could drive the vehicle and do a quick inspection before purchase. He said they don't allow customers to drive...

    List of Things to Inspect (LOTI) When taking Rivian R1T delivery

    Although I don't have my R1S yet, the forums are good places to learn what things have gone wrong for new owners of the R1T. I hope there can be a "List of Things to inspect" (LOTI) when taking delivery" for both R1T and R1S vehicles. If you've taken delivery and can provide some advice to...

    Wall chargers

    I ordered a Rivian Wall charger with my R1S (Sept 2019). I've had a Model S since Feb 2014 for which I use the mobile connector that plugs into a NEMA 14-50 circuit in my garage. It charges at 23-25 miles per hour. Will the Rivian do the same if I install another 14-50 outlet? Can anyone...

    Warranty coverage - battery, compressor, seats, center console, armrest, etc...?

    I searched for warranty-related posts, but could not find my questions which are kind of esoteric, but here are some: Obviously the big thing is the battery warranty, but what else is covered under the warranty and how long is it? other potential things that would make life annoying: what if...

    Rivain R1T vs Ford Lightning F-150

    Recent online articles from Slash Gear and Engadget cited Marques Brownlee’ evaluation of a platinum F-150. He stated and showed that the F-150 with 80% charge had 360 miles and that Ford indicated that range was calculated with 1000 pounds of extra weight. If true, that’ s great but it...
