Rivian Seat Cooling: Can It Stay as the Default Setting?

I can't really tell if it was the latest update that caused this issue with my Rivian R1S. A few days after I updated my Rivian software to the latest version, my R1S locked and unlocked every time I passed by the garage, which was kind of strange at first. I looked for the proximity lock setting for my home address, but it was missing from the menu. It was like the truck doesn’t recognize my house anymore. The constant noise from the locks was disruptive when my husband was working in the garage, and I was concerned I’d need to contact service before we eventually found a solution that worked. So, we removed our home address from the navigation system, re-entered it, and performed a soft reset. Then, I toggled the proximity lock setting off and back on. Within seconds, the full menu reappeared, including the home lock option. It’s been functioning normally since then, with no random locking. If anyone’s R1S is having this issue, try these steps. I hope this helps others avoid the trouble I experienced.

I’ve been using seat cooling a lot lately and I thought the last setting I picked, would stay on the main screen, but every time I get in, it shows the seat warmer icon instead. I have to tap it, then switch to cooling, which is a bit of a lengthy process. Does anyone know if there’s a way to set the cooling icon as the default on the main screen?

i’d love to skip the extra step and just have it ready to go. It’d make things so much easier, especially in hot weather when I need that cool air right away. I checked the manual but couldn’t find anything about saving this setting. Any tips or tricks to make this work?

The recent update I installed on my R1S indicates this won’t be an issue

Seat Climate Icon Enhancement

"The vehicle now displays the Seat Climate icon with the Heat or Ventilate icon, depending on the outside temperature. Choose Seat Climate from the bottom of the center display to turn it on for the driver or front passenger seat."
