It would be nice if you had an idea of when it was built, maybe with the last six of the vin#
I thought this was a good checklist from this forum. I could not find it in the search option but found it when I did a google search.
It took about 4 days. Totally was not expecting it but as I said. I asked politely and they said, let us see what they could do.
I agree with you fully. The forum has been extremely helpful. We learned a lot from all the posts. It’s a great community. Sometimes negative comments also made me double guess my choice prior to getting the car. But even for those it seems that the company in general has been very willing to fix things. So that’s why I decided to stick with the decision and we already had an R1T and we’re very happy with it. We got our R1S three weeks ago and can’t be happier. Great car on highway and small roads. It’s driving as well as the R1T in our opinion. We had a wonderful experience with the service center (Bellevue WA) and the guide was extremely helpful along the way.After reading these threads for the last month, I was amazed at the problems people posted, some were legit and others, let us just say were not SO PLEASE STOP! My R1S came to me without any noticeable flaws. The 22s are huge when you look at them and a little bit more noticeable feel on the road than the 20s AT that i had on my First Drive. I can honestly say that the launch of this vehicle actually put the biggest smile on my face when driving home. So much quicker than my 2016 Hell Cat since that car had close to zero ability for traction even with Sticky tires. I'm sure top end at the track might be a different story but my days of 125MPH are gone. The 2008 ZO6 was by far my favorite sport car and still not even close to this launch. (That car also had traction problems but not as bad as the Hell Cat). With that being said the service team in Phoenix really made the experience quite nice. Much better than Audi did when I bought an S5 (Great Car!!!!!). I inspected the car using a check list from this forum, it was very useful and gave me peace of mind (Thank You for that thread). When you take deliver if you have not already, go in with expecting a nice experience and you will probably have one. Always be cautious and inspect the vehicle like you always would with any purchase of this magnitude. If you are new to EVs like myself, ask questions, they were very helpful. Up to this point, RIVIAN and the Phoenix Service Center get an A++++.
Congrats, looks great. are you happy with 22s or do you regret not getting 20s?After reading these threads for the last month, I was amazed at the problems people posted, some were legit and others, let us just say were not SO PLEASE STOP!
