  1. Picked up the DUNE & HVAC already broke!

    So I’m having the same problem again. The third row fan hack works OK, but it’s just bizarre to me that the A/C is borked again after sitting in our garage while we we on vacation for 9 days. The only thing that changed was the latest software update 2025.18. Tried a hard reset, still no A/C. I...
  2. Ventilated Seats not working

    My driver's side works at about 20% when set to 3 cooling bars. Passenger seat is ice cold, so could be blockage. I don't want to take it in for something this small since our SC is a ways away, so I'll see if there's anything blocking airflow under the seat. Tried hard reset to no avail. It's...
  3. Picked up the DUNE & HVAC already broke!

    Yowza. That’s far. I was able to get A/C working by turning on the third row fan—not sure why this works, but it does. A/C doesn’t kick in at all if it’s just the first and/or second rows, so something is not right. This tip won’t help R1T drivers but may help if your R1S v2 has a/c on the fritz.
  4. Picked up the DUNE & HVAC already broke!

    I don’t have a dune but have a Gen2 R1S that has already been in the shop for this issue. Heat gave out during a snowy time here. 3 weeks later, it’s in the 80s and a/c gave out. I really love this vehicle but hate the QC issues. I guess I need to make 3 or 4 attempts before filing a lemon law...
  5. Gen2 R1S making loud buzzing noise when heat is on

    I didn't mind the noise, but last week it was super loud (think jet engine) and then a smell of burnt plastic filled the cabin. Didn't get any heat after that. Tried soft and hard resets, no luck. Now in service. A bunch of R1S Gen 2s have had this issue according to r/Rivian. At least the...
  6. “Thermal System Fault Detected” - safe to drive?

    Seems like a lot of gen2 folks are seeing this issue on Reddit. It happened to me earlier today when I turned on defrost and temp got set to HI automatically. After a minute or two there was a burning smell, then the thermal system fault. I’ve tried hard reset, sleep cycle, and now have a...
  7. 2024.51.01 Update Installed

    Yikes! Thankfully the update failed and my wife was able to use the car earlier today. Let me know how it goes for you after the resets. I’ll probably try that method as well.
  8. 2024.51.01 Update Installed

    I was having the proximity sensor issues so I started installing this around 8:30 this AM. It's 9:35 and the update is stuck at 7%. My wife needs the car in 20 mins and I might be in the doghouse if she can't use it. I'm guessing it's really bad to try to abort an update?
  9. Cracked Skull, Fractured Bones Show Danger for Rivian Factory’s Workers (Bloomberg)

    Yikes. Sounds like Rivian is taking the right steps to address these issues, but this is pretty worrisome. Article claims that Rivian, with just 1 factory, has more "serious" workplace safety violations than any automaker since the start of 2023. At least there aren't any documented repeat...
  10. Installing an external drive for camera video storage

    Any issues over the summer with the heat? I have a similar setup but am using the 1TB T7 shield.
  11. Accelerator Pedal

    This is honestly the one thing I miss coming from a Mach-E. Especially in Unbridle mode, the response is instant and super easy to get up to speed. I'm getting used to the response of the Rivian and can deal with it, just wish I didn't have to press as firmly. I have dual standard so that may be...
  12. R1S Tri -- October Lease Offer

    Confirming—same on my lease signed last weekend.
  13. Gen 2 2025 R1S issues thread

    Fair point! I haven't ever had to do it in the past, so might get a service ticket up if it's still a thing after a few days.
  14. Gen 2 2025 R1S issues thread

    Took delivery of standard dual motor '25 R1S last Saturday, upgrades were forest green and dark ash wood interior. No issues aside from maybe a very slight panel thing on the roof, otherwise went through the delivery checklist swiftly. 2 year lease while I wait for R2S, main use will be 2nd car...
  15. Driver's seat leg room in R1S?

    Took delivery last Saturday and it is indeed great! More than I need, which is a first for me. I was comfy enough in the Mach-E for shorter drives, but didn't exactly enjoy 8-hour days driving it cross country. Shouldn't be a problem in the R1S.
  16. NACS adapters now shipping with every new R1S & R1T delivery!

    I took delivery today of an inventory R1S and didn’t get an adapter. The guides said I’d get an email soon to confirm shipping address etc. and it should only be a few weeks from now. I have the Ford NACS adapter so no big deal on my end, I can be patient.
  17. NACS adapters now shipping with every new R1S & R1T delivery!

    Taking delivery of a '25 R1S on Saturday so I may get it, may not—I'm not worried since I have the Ford NACS adapter I can use in a pinch. I think during my demo drive they mentioned getting it within a month of taking delivery. Will keep folks here posted.
  18. In search of the best hitch-mount bike rack for R1S

    Are any of the options discussed here good for bikes with fenders? The GuideRail specifically says no to fendered bikes.
  19. Friends & Family discount extended to Gen 2 R1

    Confirming what tonyty said. I chose from the vehicles available in the shop and will take delivery on 9/28! Thank you so much!
