I have previously used the streaming capability back when it first came out as well as the hotspot since before Connect+ was a thing. I am trying to get the streaming working again but it seems to have been hidden fully behind the paywall. (Not looking to argue the merits of that system here) I recall after Connect+ came out being able to still use the Hotspot while tethering with my phone, and losing it isn't a big deal other than needing to update my wife's wifi, but I think I remember needing to be on the Hotspot to do casting. My question is, did Rivian remove both of these features to fully behind the connect+ paywall? I thought that if you used phone tethering or if you were connected to WIFI you could use most all of the usual streaming like features of the Rivian? If anyone can recommend how to stream while using tethering I'm sure myself and others without Connect+ would appreciate it.

In an attempt to resolve an annoying rattling sound emanating from my driver’s side door panel, I initially considered disassembling the door to identify and fix the issue.

However, I opted to submit a service request, and last week, Rivian’s mobile service arrived promptly. They replaced the entire door panel with a new one, completing the task within a mere 15 minutes.

Prior to installation, they ensured that the new panel was securely fastened, eliminating any loose components that were causing the rattling. I regret not being aware of this straightforward solution sooner, as I would have likely resolved the issue sooner. I highly recommend that anyone experiencing similar issues consider seeking professional assistance to address them efficiently.
