Rivian PAAK Tip: What to Do in Poor Cell Service Areas

Last night, when I reached my Rivian truck after work, my iPhone displayed a message. I captured a screenshot to show what happens if you avoid signing back into the app. The Phone as a Key (PAAK) feature still works without logging in again. If you're in an area with poor cell service, don’t try to sign in. Instead, keep using the app and PAAK until you’re somewhere with a good signal and can access your password. The screen’s text explains this, but some users still get confused. This is a quick tip for PAAK users to avoid trouble.

Long story short. I went to Costco for some new tires. Parked my car and gave keycard to Costco. Their employee backed my car into some carts going to put the new tires on. Didn't say anything to me and I didn't notice at pickup. Got home, unloaded car and I noticed.

I freaked out at first because I thought the drive camera didn't catch it from what I saw on the dash. Took the SSD inside and plugged it into a computer, so happy to see all my drives labeled for me to export. I was also able to save the gear guard video showing the Costco employee walking to my car just before this happened.

Now I get to see what the Costco incident process looks like. Never a dull moment.
