I searched around and can't find any results. I had this happen before, and can't remember if I got a resolution.

We're currently charging and after 50%, it stepped down and started making a loud humming/vibration noise. Has anyone else experienced this? It's been a while since I've heard it, maybe last August, but it's definitely not the first time. I'm not concerned, just annoyed.

Edit: I just stopped charging and it ceased. Thoughts?

I have the same issue. But this was on the prior software version and haven't really tried to dcfc with the new version.

I brought it until the SC and also had wassym check it out on reddit (engineer who helps escalations in reddit). They said it was normal... But I had a ton of other issues that they seemed to focus more on, so not sure if they really looked at it extensively.

Super ghetto that the dash vibrates. It sounds like your car is about the take off!

I will say, mine continued after dcfc for a few minutes, it didn't stop with charging.

I think it's heat related, perhaps a cooling fan, only happens on 350kW chargers. We moved from a 150 getting 165 over to that one when someone left, it ramped up quickly to 212 but then dropped below 150 at 50%. We had trouble at a 350 earlier in the day, had to swap to a 150 and it held 160 till like 70% (we think?).

I'm gonna stick with EA 150s or ChargePoint 215s from now on. 350s cause too many problems and annoyances. I just need some Serenity Now...

We've only DC fast-charged twice on the way home from delivery a couple of months ago and our's sounded very loud similar to yours. In talking with Rivian, they think it's probably normal but wants to look at it.

I have the same issue. Usually turning off climate control while charging will get it to stop.
