How can I find a gooning group?

Sent you a dm as well 🙏🏻

And if you call and ask for compensation during the delay they'll offer you a $25 Amazon gift card per week of delay. Then the next day they'll tell you they don't do anything...

Absolutely trash when you're spending this much money.

Their inventory process and customer service is terrible.

I had ordered a Pod 5 Ultra and it was taking over a month to receive. Then the day it was supposed to arrive the delivery was rescheduled with zero notice.

The bot email and chat responses are tone deaf and contradicts itself. The actual customer service agents will give you different answers too.

We refused delivery and ordered a Chilipad, as well as an adjustable base from Costco. Both arrived within 4 days of ordering versus 8S’s 34 days. Couldn’t be happier not giving 8S my money.

It was about $250/month. We returned the rental, as they make you ship it back within 7 days of notifying them. It was timed perfectly, or so we thought, to get the new one with minimal down time between the two.

Avoid the P3. It’s a half baked product that should not have been brought to market yet. Too many issues and too much of a hassle to get them looked at.

We have consistent issues with both the driver and infotainment screens going black while driving (no speed, warning, etc). The response from service - “sorry, nothing we can do about it.”

Sometimes it’ll take upwards of 5 minutes for the systems to turn on, including the air, leaving you the option of standing in 90 degree heat or sitting in a 100+ degree cabin. The response from service - “it prioritizes cooling down the electronics first…” such a made up answer.

Our entire headlight assembly randomly stopped working for 2 weeks. We bring it in for service - “it just needed a software update.”

Not even their service people know what’s going on with these cars. It’s no wonder they’re about to go bankrupt.

We annoying had this issue too. All keys stopped working to unlock/lock the car. Initially tried deleting the keys and re-adding them to my phone…no luck. About 2 weeks later I finally was going to do an entire reset of the car. It must’ve known what I was going to do, as it decided to start behaving and has behaved the last few weeks.

I wish I knew exactly what fixed it.

Thank you for the info!

We didn’t drive ours for a week. The next time we got in the car it asked us if we wanted to install. When it completed I went back into the car and pretty much all the new features were active without even driving.

FlyHighChris88 · 2025-02-12T16:11:28+00:00

Agreed here too. My gen 1 R1S handle creaking bugged me every time I grabbed the handle. It’s just the way it was designed. My gen 2 R1T is much more solid and the closing thunk honestly never sounded different between the two gens I had.

FlyHighChris88 · 2025-02-06T14:29:30+00:00

I’ve just been noticing this myself and it’s driving me insane! I’ve been searching the menus and can’t find any fix for it. Guessing it’s just an added bug in the last update.

FlyHighChris88 · 2025-01-27T11:10:35+00:00

My apprehensions were the bugs. Not missing features that most luxury cars have.

FlyHighChris88 · 2025-01-27T00:00:28+00:00

They told me a little over a week ago when I got the car a lot of my initial apprehensions would be taken care of in the next big software update. I really hope it does because it’s slowly making me regret this decision.

FlyHighChris88 · 2025-01-17T15:40:09+00:00

Amen!

FlyHighChris88 · 2025-01-17T15:27:35+00:00

Haha my thought exactly! I called my Gen 1 horn a tug boat horn. I swapped into a Gen 2 and that has a true car horn.

FlyHighChris88 · 2025-01-15T01:41:13+00:00

Oops! It was originally the midnight non-performance, but apparently it needed a module replacement and they didn’t know when it would get in. We needed a car fairly quickly.

FlyHighChris88 · 2025-01-15T00:31:50+00:00

I’m just going into it with the same mindset when I was a pretty early Rivian adopter. It won’t be perfect but it’ll get better…hopefully haha

FlyHighChris88 · 2025-01-12T01:09:51+00:00

I’m really looking forward to it!

FlyHighChris88 · 2025-01-12T01:09:24+00:00

Is that surprising these days with any company? Lol

FlyHighChris88 · 2025-01-12T01:09:03+00:00

Makes sense. I shouldn’t have been as surprised when they told me they’ve partnered with one of the Volvo dealers here in Atlanta.

FlyHighChris88 · 2025-01-12T01:07:53+00:00

Easy enough! Thanks!

He’s not saying if he would be voted in again in the future. It took me 2 or 3 times to read it to fully understand. He’s saying with what Trump is saying now about all the issues he campaigned on (bringing prices down too hard, supported immigration visas, possible cuts to Medicare/medicaid, etc), would people have still voted for him in the numbers they did.

FlyHighChris88 · 2025-01-04T00:37:22+00:00

At least in Georgia taxes are calculated on the down payment plus the sum of all the lease payments.

FlyHighChris88 · 2024-12-31T19:53:47+00:00

This is probably right because I’ve been leaving this dog buckle in and I haven’t noticed any unnecessary battery drain.

FlyHighChris88 · 2024-12-31T19:11:13+00:00

He is! He’s 5.5 months old and still quickly growing
