Is your passenger side window washer nozzle aimed much lower than the others?

Both of mine are very low, too low if you ask me (most of the water just runs off the bottom), but I was told by someone that this was by design, so as to be a good neighbor and not put a mist behind us when we do this while driving? I dunno.

I've always just stuck a pin in the nozzle and adjusted wherever I want it to go. I haven't looked, is the Rivian different or is that still the standard way to adjust a nozzle?

All of mine shoot very low, much lower than any other car I've ever owned. Seems to work fine, but this winter will be the real test.

Yep. I filed a ticket with Rivian and the guy told me that it’s a known issue but don’t have a fix yet.

Mine also point low all across. If anything, drivers side nozzles might be pointed lower than passenger side.

I'm having this same problem, drove to work this morning and but a bunch of bugs.. went to press the washer button and only got fluid in the bottom quarter of the glass. wind didnt have enough time to get up to the top half since the wipers activate immediately. Need to adjust these but can't figure it out, will have to wait a couple months just to get an appt.

They did not seem to be adjustable. The service center replaced my whole nozzle assembly. Now all 3 point too low for my tastes - but the service rep told me I was wrong (like I’ve never driven a car before)

I’ve had a dead bug guys in the middle of my glasses for 3 weeks now because I can’t squirt enough water there.
