I got this email yesterday. I don’t see anything posted on this forum from anyone else so this brings up two surprises to me.
1. Am I the only one?
2. They have an option of using a 3rd party vendor.

You're not the only one and, yes, it seems like they're offering the option of using their certified collision repair network for this proactive warranty work.

I got the email to and live in San Antonio. My email listed repair shops in Austin and when I tried to schedule an appointment, the app would only list Austin, Houston and Dallas service centers. I think the AI bot in the app is still a beta test.

Yeah I live in Spring Branch. I was hoping I could use the SC in San Antonio for this but you are right, it doesn’t come up. I have other issues too so I need to take it to a SC. Austin SC for me is an 1:20 trip. San Antonio is only about 30 or 40 minutes at the most. The Rivain AI bot sucks.

Luckily my office is less than 5 minutes from the San Antonio service center so I am going to drop by and see what they can do.

Gotta be for the condensate or the cowl drain. Maybe they clog for some reason or there's a leaky plug under the dash in the tray.

I had mine replaced after I noticed a lot of moisture under the drivers side carpet a couple months ago. It took them a good week to complete it.

It cannot be done by mobile.

They are proactively replacing the 12v battery, the HVAC drain plug, and tightening some stuff at the wheels I believe.
Takes a couple hours and you get the vehicle back the same day. Third party service center is an option for even quicker service.

Received phone call from Memphis SC - scheduled mobile appointment for less than a week later - for drain plug - here and gone in less than an hour.
Memphis has been outstanding for 3 mobile and one post-towing SC appointment (left rear half-shaft) so far!

Yes, i got mine serviced at Advanced Safety calibration in Lawrenceville, GA.
They also did some recall stuff. Tightening drive bolts. Rivian paid for it.
