    Anyone else having Charge Port door issue after 2024.07.02?

    After the update, I unplugged the truck and left the charge port door open since it closes automatically when you put the truck "in gear". I reversed out of my driveway, then started on my way and immediately noticed that the charge port door was still open. That's never happened before. I...

    Did the SC fix your issue? If so, what did they have to do? Thanks!

    Unable to insert charger into my R1T

    You were inserting the handle at an angle. At a different RAN that I've used several times, I noticed the last time that it was more difficult to insert. Carefully inserting the handle straight in allowed it to connect. My suggestion is to get your vehicle as close as possible to the...

    Warnings for front camera and sensors

    I occasionally have the same warnings along with ride height not working. Leaving the vehicle alone and allowing it to sleep reset "fixes" the problems. I agree it seems like software.

    Opening Gear Tunnel

    For me the problem is the "relocking in the cracked position" part. Why does it do that? If I unlatch the door, I expect it to stay unlatched until I either open it fully, or push it closed.

    Can we talk about Rivian Swag in the Gear Shop?

    I've bought a t-shirt, a couple of hoodies, and the 20oz bottle from the Gear Shop and found them to be expensive, but of high quality. The t-shirt is made of very heavy material. Oh, also bought the backpack and that is really high quality. I as well like the subtle branding and the clothing...

    Difficult to remove spare tire on R1T with cargo crossbars.

    Since the OP has crossbars installed, there's no way for him to pull the wheel&tire straight up - the spare tire door only opens partway as it hits the rear crossbar. This is why I secure the strap to the rear of the wheel.

    Difficult to remove spare tire on R1T with cargo crossbars.

    I don't have a tent on my crossbars, but I secure a nylon tow strap around the most rearward spoke of the wheel (with rags positioned to protect the wheel's finish) and standing on the tailgate, pull the strap straight up and back to get the tire over the rear edge of the tire cavity. Then I...

    Suspension warning light?? What does it mean?

    bkvargyas, Do the warning lights go away after a sleep reset? (Get out, lock the doors, and walk away for ~30min). That’s what mine does. This issue is so intermittent for me that I won’t file a service ticket.

    Check suspension soon warning.

    KnightRider, I started a thread on the exact same issue as you: Warning lights that go away by themselves Please let us know what you find out from the SC. I'm reluctant to schedule an appointment since it's so intermittent and don't want my time wasted with a "cannot reproduce" response. Brian

    R1T Front drive inverter and HV Battery Assembly Replacement

    It really depends on the manufacturer and exactly what is replaced under warrantee. I had the entire engine replaced in my ICE car under warrantee (would have cost me $27K) and it was covered for 2 years from the time of replacement independent of the original warrantee.

    This indicates to me a lack of confidence in their quality.

    Paint Protection PPF Cost?

    That depends on the shop you had install it. The shop I used (which charged me $7K for whole vehicle PPF) has a lifetime warrantee that also covers edges lifting and damage due to rock strikes, etc. (which I already have a few of). I'm guessing that the bargain basement shops going for a low...

    Warning lights that go away by themselves

    Ever since I had my windshield replaced, which also included replacing the Power Distribution Unit (PDU) that failed while the technician was test driving my truck to verify the ACC calibration required by the new windshield, I'm occasionally getting warning lights that appear some time (some...

    Massive cross country trip completed in Rivian R1T! 8,878 miles, 100 charges, 2.1 mi/kWh

    No, the actual shipping version of the Max Pack wouldn’t have made much of a difference to me and would not have been worth the price. FYI, I originally had the Max Pack configured for my Jan’20 reservation but that was when it was supposed to be 180kWh. After a certain point, I gave up on the...

    South Florida Windshield Repair

    I don't have any direct advise to you regarding shops in FL, but from my experience having my windshield replaced, make sure the shop you use can perform the camera calibration otherwise your truck will have to go to a Rivian service center anyway to have that done. I chose to just have my...

    Great service at Portland Service Center

    I just got my truck back from the Portland SC as I needed to have my windshield replaced due to a crack in the driver's side upper corner incurred in Aug on the way back home from our Portland<->Key West driving trip. This was going to be covered by my insurance the tune of ~$1700. Upon...

    Is your experience with the Rivian GPS Nav as Bad as Mine has been?

    I must be totally missing something here - how did you add a waypoint to a route using the builtin navigation system? That's a feature I thought was missing...

    Mobile tech fixed dash speaker grill rattle -- details & photos

    What exactly do you mean by the tech "put foam on the snap connectors"? He wrapped some foam tape around the speaker connector bodies implying that they are vibrating against some of the supporting structure? Thanks! Brian
