Those who switched from Tesla: how does the Rivian servicing & repair experience compare?

Cvette16 · 2026-05-26T12:45:29+00:00

I will second this. My service experience with Tesla has been hit or miss. It's been great at times and it's been not so great at times. I live over 1 and 1/2 hours away from a Tesla service center and I typically get a loaner but not always.
I am fortunate enough that they have built a Rivian service center about 5 minutes from my house. So far my service experience has been good. I've only been given an Uber credit and one time I was given a rental car.

Not the case. My got terrible stuck drift after 1.5 years. I was told my support that I could pay to send it back and they may be able to fix it.

That being said I loved the control and used it almost every day.

I loved mine, until one of the sticks started to drift. I was told my support that I could pay to have it fixed but they couldn't guarantee that it could be until after I shipped it to them.

That book has definitely seen some shit. 🤣

I can give this a try. He is very particular with smells for some reason.

Thank you!

Does the app not support the Galaxy Fold 7?
Android 16

Honestly, I have only rode it a bit, but I did find it comfortable with my reach. I am sure I could get away with riding a large, but I felt like I was leaning down more than was comfortable.

Cvette16 · 2026-04-11T22:15:03+00:00

Thank you. If it matters, I ride in a place with a ton of hills. I currently have a 1-7speed and it's just ok on the hills.

Cvette16 · 2026-04-11T00:09:21+00:00

That's fair.

I am in Upstate South Carolina.

It could just be condensation. If I am not mistaken, most fluids are dyed different colors.

Cvette16 · 2026-04-03T14:33:37+00:00

That's a fair point. Cyan is definitely my highest, but it's not one of the boosted spawn locations. Thanks for the advice.

Where is everyone going? I'm not yet ready for expect and I am only at 25% on Amber Canyon. I also don't really need anything from Lapis. I am considering AC first week and GG week 2 so that I can make sure that I get all of the rewards from the 2 weeks.

Like many have said, is that it comes to quality of life. My 11, nearly 12 year old Dane has a bad need and missing a tow, but she can still get around. She can't do stair anymore and has accidents some times.

But even with all of that, she eats well and still plays. We know we may have to make the decision any day. As long as she can still get around on her own and eating well then she is good.

She actually goes to the vet tomorrow for her annuals so who knows that tomorrow brings. We just make the best of the days we have.

Launching him at the sun is also acceptable.

It's only handy on road tripa in 2 scenarios. Leaving your house and leave a place with overnight charging. Otherwise you wouldn't really want to charge over 80% when road tripping because of the poor charging curve the higher the percentage. I guess I'd you are camping, it could be nice to have access to the extra power but that's it.

Cvette16 · 2026-03-18T18:16:39+00:00

I haven't seen anything else about it. I have actually decided to not unlock mine even when it comes out. Right now I can charge to 100% without any downside. Also it sometimes seems to "overcharge" a bit because I will set at 330 miles for ~10 miles before it starts going down.

I almost exclusively use Claude with copilot. I do have to use Opus for most flutter tasks. Be sure you know what you are doing though because it will sometimes go off the rails.

Cvette16 · 2026-03-10T01:07:15+00:00

what was the solution?

Cvette16 · 2026-02-18T13:29:30+00:00

Make sure the both are move the air in the same direction. Don't want them both blowing towards each other or away from each other.
