    Rivian Sunshade

    This is also my personal favorite and what I have used in numerous vehicles. It also seems to be 45% off at the moment: https://www.covercraft.com/product/uvs100-custom-sunscreen/UV

    Rivian Service turned off gear guard and left it off

    In many places, recording in such an environment is only legally allowed with consent.

    Dash rattle mitigation - dash disassemble DIY

    Yes, which is why I think the spacers I added to keep the fasteners under tension resolved my noises.

    Dash rattle mitigation - dash disassemble DIY

    That sounds far worse than anything I had. Almost sounds like a clip is missing or broken.

    Dash rattle mitigation - dash disassemble DIY

    I don't have any pictures at the moment but my approach is to apply wherever the noises come from. :) If I can find some time, I will try to get pics and document in more detail. No promises. Mostly just wanted to convey that taking the dash apart may not be required to eliminate all undesirable...

    Dash rattle mitigation - dash disassemble DIY

    I too have also been able to eliminate 99.9% of all dash noises without any disassembly. Primarily by wedging small strips of rubber weatherstripping that I had available under the front edge of the grill, primarily around the center speaker area. I also ran a strip of plastic under the entire...

    Tesla FSD Full Self Driving & Rivian ?

    Cost. Until recently, the hardware had been prohibitively expensive. It was certainly one of the earliest things that Rivian dropped from the R1 platform.

    Tesla FSD Full Self Driving & Rivian ?

    Exactly! Having to babysit or "supervise" an Autonomous Idiot does not, in any way, make my life easier or reduce my stress. Quite the opposite, actually.

    How low can you go (remaining range)?

    YMMV. Literally. 30 miles uphill at 80 mph in the rain with a headwind and that 42 miles of range might not get you home.

    Rivian Seizure

    I'd check the suspension electrical connectors and make sure they are all properly seated.

    Key fob PSA!

    This has been brought up before but it's a good reminder for all (and perhaps the first time newer members are hearing about this). My solution to this problem is that the FOB makes a nice desk ornament. It only gets used when I drop the R1S off for service.

    Not allowed to speak with management? Say what?!!

    Drama finds those who seek it.

    Brand new R1S is DEAD

    If it makes anyone feel better, in the last 24 hrs, I've seen one Model Y and one Ioniq 5 being hauled away on flat beds.

    Level 2 NACS Adapter recommendations?

    Unfortunately, current generation Rivians (or any other BEV aside from Tesla) don't have the hardware to do what you described earlier.

    Level 2 NACS Adapter recommendations?

    Not the case. You will need 2 adapters. Rivian will be providing an NACS DCFC adapter for use with compatible Tesla Superchargers. You are on your own to obtain an adapter for L2 AC charging at a Tesla destination charger.

    Rivian needs to update software fix for backup camera freezing while backing out of garage (going from dark to bright lighting)

    Yep, I've noticed the same multiple times since getting the update last week. Funny that they claimed to fix it in the previous release per the release notes but actually fixed it in 2024.11.2 and didn't mention it in the release notes.

    Level 2 NACS Adapter recommendations?

    I went with A2Z, couldn't justify the price of TeslaTap for my infrequent usage. The A2Z seems well built and works flawlessly.

    Brake Failure and Axle Boot Tear

    Hard to tell from pictures but I'm not sure either problem caused the other. I might suspect something got kicked up off the road and damaged both the boot and a brake line.

    22" Inch Tire Options

    It's been hard to make a true apples-to-apples comparison but I have not noticed any difference in efficiency with the new Contis, either around town or on a road trip. I'm still super happy with these tires.
