GPS Accuracy on 2022.31.5

[jjswan33]

Is anyone else experiencing GPS inaccuracy with the latest software update? Since I got my truck back from service (with problems) I am seeing trucks GPS location bounce around a lot (mostly when stopping at stop signs/lights) if I have navigation going it flips around enough to recalculate the directions.

Never seen this before so wondering if it is new to the latest software or just another problem with my truck post service.

I have seen the bug jump forward at stop signs since the beginning. Haven't had the truck back in a month, so I can't tell you if there is a change in the last two updates.

Thanks interesting. I guess it's possible I never noticed it before this week but considering the miles i have logged I'm not sure how.

Curious if others experience that.

Sorry about your truck, dealing with them is a PIA.

FYI this is a video that shows what I’m talking about. Curious if others have always seen this like @godfodder0901 or if others are seeing this after the latest update.

I will say that mine doesn't 'bounce' quite like that. It just does that initial 'jump' and then comes back to center. Almost like the bug is using DR (dead reckoning) and doesn't realize I stopped. Then says 'oh shit, we stopped' and jumps back.

Thanks that is useful. I reported it to Rivian and sent the video this morning.

It's not that big of a deal when I'm not use nav but when I am it ends up recalculating directions twice, if I were somewhere unfamiliar it could get quite confusing.

Thanks Brice. I assume you are on the latest software now?

There was a communication regarding the antenna and poor cell and GPS reception. Maybe this is relevant to you/us?

This did remind me of something that is somewhat related. Am I the only one that can't get a good sense as to how far I am from the upcoming street when looking at the GPS with directions on the main screen? I almost feel like it's subject to a time delay behind the truck slightly. I'll be at an intersection and think the truck is still approaching it on the screen.

Yes sir. The only time I've had it jump around on me was when I was in the SR99 tunnel. Which is generally interesting to me.

I had something similar happen to me, but after a soft reset everything worked like normal. No issues since.

Agree with the delay. I feel like I’ve had some of that and misses directions sometimes when in ore unfamiliar areas.
The bouncing as references in video I have not noticed. There were some option buttons at top of screen that I don’t recall seeing either - but ghat would be a different topic.
I have noticed nav doesn’t do well with a curved right turn and instead thinks should go straight and make a 90 right

Mine has done it since before the update, but it has gotten MUCH worse post-update.

If you pay attention to the road instead of playing with your phone making videos, you might be better able to avoid driving into fields.

It’s a Rivian why would I want to avoid driving in fields…
