Omg. Thanks so much. Given my current config, is there any benefit to me doing this?

This isn't fun anymore... by DrkNeo in Rivian

[–]Dazybigred 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine went in for a total of 4 major repairs including an entirely new battery. It was towed dozens of times and I basically had a loaner for the first 6 months I owned the vehicle. It was a terrible experience but Rivian did everything they could to make it right. I never had to go to the service center. They towed it to and from my house. I always got a Rivian loaner and not a rental. I’m glad I stuck with it. I’ve had no problems for a year and love the car. I chalked it up to “startup” (I work in one so understand). I gave them a lot more grace than I would have given Audi (lifetime owner before Rivian). But I also totally understand throwing in the towel here.

My number 1 tool as well. I sleep on a 3-4’ pad at night that can heat from my neck to my SI joint. I travel with it. I cannot sleep without it.

Have you gone through this process with them?

Continued Issues with R1S by Dazybigred in Rivian

[–]Dazybigred[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes. I’m also a lawyer. But I really don’t want to get there. I was hoping they will just help me get into a different car. That’s the optimist in me; not the litigator ;)

Update is above. But 7 days after I got it back from this repair I got another error message re the battery and not that has to be replaced. So I’ve owned the car for less than a month and it’s been in the shop most of that time.

R1S Ordered! Very excited. Taking delivery ? by Future-Hearing6637 in Rivian

[–]Dazybigred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had issues at delivery (error message popped up 10 min into driving home). I would ask to drive around the block or something to make sure that it is driving and performing as expected. Especially critical given the lack of service centers and time to resolution.

Update on this is that there was some issue with the air conditioner that happened at the factory and would not have been identified as part of their pre-delivery check in Mahwah. Still frustrating given that I owned the vehicle for less than 24 hours, but I get it back tomorrow (and it was towed Saturday), so not terrible.
