Overzealous A/C - Anyone else?

Well, we're in the middle of a heat wave. Been setting the truck to "precool" before I leave the house or the office. Appears Rivian doesn't know how a thermostat works. Getting some pretty ridiculously cold temps. Glad the A/C is working, but this is absurd. Anyone else seeing this?

Current Status. It's been cooling for about 15min now. Current ambient temp is 89degF with a heat index of 106degF. It's not Arizona heat, but it's toasty for Buffalo.

Got in the truck this morning and even the vents thought they should've been blowing warm air.

Of all the shit that doesn't work right on this truck, at least the A/C isn't on that list. I'm not going to have service touch it either. They're find some way to screw it up and make the heat the only thing that works or some similar BS.

Feels like a "mission failed successfully" type scenario.

I wish. As soon as the temps hit 95+ for me, it struggles to keep up and/or takes a good 20 minutes until it's comfortable inside and never, in my experience, approaches "cold" inside thereafter.

Judging by your screenshot, it's only 77 outside where you are -- perhaps that's the difference.

91 when I walked out. Truck set to 70, app reporting 61 in the truck.

Such a weird problem to have.
