    Hood flutter?

    I had the work order sent to me, it says 1200.00. I hope it's a mistake or will be zeroed out. If not then I'll assume its for transport fee and if that is indeed the case I will put my truck up for sale the second I get confirmation. I am not paying for them to pick up my truck to fix...

    Hood flutter?

    Any owners notice any hood flutter when they hit 60mph or over? It reminds me of a tight canvas cover on a trailer or truck bed where the wind makes the surface move. Our vehicle was sent to a SC in Atlanta where they attempted a fix (something was mentioned about a part delaminating and...

    Dead pedal / footrest cleaning

    I have some residual glue on my dead pedal from the protective covering that was on there. Anyone have a suggestion on how to safely remove it from the metal? We tried hot soapy water and the glue didnt budge.

    Took delivery yesterday: first impressions and Tesla comparison

    I really like our R1T. Our particular vehicle has o only one tiny issue (floor peg) but everything else is almost perfect. Paint, gaps, interior fit and finish. The more I drive it the more I like it. Oddly enough owning the Rivian gave me more appreciation for our '21 M3P. That car is just so...

    Tonneau cover issues

    We are building a house that is in the middle of the woods and we have to travel 1.2 miles down a gravel road that gets extremely dusty. The house we live in currently is in suburbia so that is not an issue. When we move there will be a ton of dust the truck/cover will be subjected to every...

    Saw my yet to be delivered truck on YT just now

    The truck made it to our house, everything was good with it. Well, except one carpet peg that was not mounted into the carpet/floorboard as it should be. Other than that everything else was solid. The truck had 17 miles on it when delivered. We did get confirmation we would be receiving a...

    Truck is bricked! Update FIXED! [12v battery trickle module software issue]

    I wonder why they just didn't put a manual release inside the cabin, down under the dash or down by your left foot on the sidewall?

    Cancelled delivery May 12 for delivery May 18th. Expected May 25!

    Same thing they asked me regarding a small scratch they noticed on the driver's door, after waiting for them to repair the tailgate that was damaged. At that point I requested a new VIN. You should as well, unless this dent can be fixed via a dent pull and not need touch up paint. Otherwise...

    Initial service experience at Rivian San Diego service center

    How bad was the wind noise at your windshield? I hear some wind noise that sounds like its coming from around the windshield but it isn't that loud. Trying to ascertain if it's normal or not. After your service visit is the noise lower?

    Slow rolling windows

    All I can go by is my own experiences. These windows are slow. Slow compared to every car I have ever owned, and that's a lot of cars over 40 years. My 2013 Model S wasn't nearly as slow, neither is my 2022 Model 3P, so I doubt it is an EV thing. It appears to be a Rivian thing though. The...

    Slow rolling windows

    The windows on our R1T are really slow to roll down. Slowest of any car we currently own, by far. I've read others have noticed this so I'm assuming it's the same for most R1Ts. I find it somewhat annoying. Something that I have not run across until now, seems like a needless PITA. Any...

    Cancelled delivery May 12 for delivery May 18th. Expected May 25!

    Sorry to hear about that Mike. I know you've read about my experience. Seems a little suspect the story you were told is similar to my own. Perhaps it's just coincidence. I'd just push for a new vehicle.

    Rivian Delivery Purgatory - No Real Communication

    My dealings were difficult and frustrating. However, I do believe, despite how it may feel right now, that they want to do well by you. They should be more proactive in their communications, but regardless of why they aren't, they just aren't. I would stay polite and fair but keep reaching...

    Rivian Delivery Purgatory - No Real Communication

    I think that is a good take on the circumstances based on my experience with them.
