3 days ago, I realized that all motion cam videos show up with “video error” and I can’t play them either. Road cam and incidents work. I’m starting to believe this is a software bug that came with the 06 update cause I have heard a few owners complain about it too. Although it resolved for me...

Wanted to share a few updates with regards to the forth coming 2025.10 Rivian update. This thread contains updates for Gen 1 vehicles only and updates for both Gen 1 and Gen 2 vehicles. For Gen 1 1. Smart Turn Signal • Your turn signal now cancels automatically after you change lanes on the...

Before now, I always wondered if it was possible to set how high the liftgate opens. Mine used to stop basically just above my head height, making me feel like I needed to duck. I even tested the range of motion, and there was a good 4-5" more it could go up, but it stops there all the time. I...

I had an obnoxious rattle on the top of my R1S dashboard. It only occured when the dash was hot from the sun and on rough roads. I reached out to Rivian who gave me a couple of fix ideas to try out but no luck. Then I noticed the rattle stopped if I pushed down on the grille where the grille and...

I wanted to share my prepared for anything kit that I use for my R1S. It includes - A V12 failure Trox stubby (in trailer hitch), Battery jumper, and Battery charger - A2z l2 adapter A2z supercharger adapter, Backup adapter 120v guage extension cord 120v/240v 16amp charger godiag 120v/240v...

I had that bad/common clicking noise at my front axles back in Sept 2024 when accelerating/decelerating from a stop. The SC replaced both half shafts and hubs in the front and the issue went away. Now, 6 months later it is happening again. I’ve got another SC appointment in a month, any tips or...

Looks like Amazon is disallowing local-only Alexa. I have disabled Alexa in my car for a few days now, so I am not sure if Rivian does any car-side processing, but I figured this is interesting for Rivian because it sets the path that AI Assistant will require some form of connectivity for...

I dont know if anyone else noticed this feature. It's subtle, but noticeable. While I was backing up into my garage with very small room for error, I noticed that with the latest update, I can apply very light acceleration backwards which allows me more control on the last few inches of the...

In case anyone is wondering what the max possible 15min efficiency value is after the new 2025.06.01 SW update. This is the answer. The graph stopped updating after I hit 10.02mi/kWh. The under 3mi/kWh section should have disappeared, but stayed stuck even after driving for another 5-10min...

My friend who hasn't owned a Rivian before placed a reservation from March of 24 for the R2. So this past week, we both went out to demo drive the R1S to check it out and get our feet wet into Rivian. Not even 2 miles into the drive the vehicle's drama started. All power was lost, electrical...

There have been many but like your first love my favorite is probably a 1962 Rambler, 6 cylinder, 3 speed on the column I purchased for $100 a couple of months before getting my drivers license. It gave me freedom to go much further than my bicycle and opened the world to adventure. Great times

I have my R1S set to unlock only the drivers door. And it works as expected. However every single car I’ve owned before had option for “staged unlocked” 1 unlock: only unlocked drivers door 2 unlocks: unlocks all doors. is this just not implemented yet for Rivians or am I missing how to do...

I've got 2 sets of wheels I switch back and forth on our R1S. Ours came with the 22" sport dark wheels and in my head I always wanted a set of the 20AT's incase we went camping, skiing... you know, adventure things. What ended up happening was, I regularly switched out the wheels as a way to...

We've been using the 22 darks with our R1S for a while now and the spare we purchased from Rivian service is a steely. I came across this R1S spare which is aluminum. Is this the standard spare for the R1S with 20" ATs?

I received delivery of my EV Sportline Center Console Lock Box (gun box) yesterday from UPS. It was sent signature required which is nice and confusing at the same time. I was quite surprised how heavy this box actually is (6 pounds on the ups label). It was packaged very well, but leave it to...
