A few questions that have come up. I messaged my guide but no response yet. I tried reading (searching, more accurately) the manual. So questions...

  • Crossbars. When did everyone else receive those? I think they were shipped to people's home? I didn't get them at delivery and was so excited about the R1S delivery that I forgot to ask about the crossbars.
  • Charge port light. There’s an option for turning this off when the car is locked. How about when it’s unlocked? I typically charge at home and don’t need the light on overnight when it’s plugged in. I prefer to leave it unlocked for convenience and when I do, the light just seems unnecessary. Is there a setting I’m missing? Is there a channel to submit a feature request?
  • Alexa. I’m typically using Bluetooth audio. Volume and everything are great but when I activate Alexa, the volume for her response is incredibly low. When I have the BT audio set between 7 and 10, when I activate Alexa, I hear the music pause and sometimes can hear that Alexa is saying something but it’s quiet to the point it’s inaudible. Are others experiencing this? Is there a way to control Alexa’s base volume level?
  • Rear wiper. There's a top/bottom button on the end of the left hand stalk. Single press to the top does a single wipe of the front wipers. Single press to the bottom turns on the rear wipers. So you have to wait a sec and press again to turn it off. Is there a way to do a single wipe on the rear window? Another feature request?
  • Android app. Anyone else seeing crazy battery drain? Rivian app is the #1 drain on my battery since taking delivery. Samsung Galaxy S22. It's active <2 mins per day but is highest % of battery usage across all apps. Thoughts?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Your cross bars will show up in a few weeks. No option to turn off the charger light. Alexa is useless. I have an r1t on the rear wiper I can't help on that as for the battery drain I noticed it on my pixel 6 pro as well I'm sure it's because of the proximity locking and unlocking.

Already received the cross bars. Thanks. Is there a place to formally make feature requests?

Through your guide, or just make a service request.

We received our crossbars, all weather mat and field kit within a week for others wondering how long delivery takes. We received the Rivian wall charger a few weeks before the truck.
