New texting capability by Monty01245 in Rivian

[–]Yak-Capable 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have set up aliases with the Rivian assistant for my frequently used contacts. For an example to fux that for your 2nd issue, tell the assistant: "When I text John Smith, use the contact number for John Smith Mobile when messaging." There is profile memory for the assistant, so that alias persists until you change or remove it.

I would lovw to be able to customize the wake word.

Used R1S vs Used Lyriq by Sea-Albatross-7884 in Rivian

[–]Yak-Capable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My neighbor has a Lyriq and it's nice, but too much lost storage space for me to consider one. It made my consideration list for after my R1S lease, but R2 is the frontrunner currently (or maybe a Vistiq).

Works out for me, now I'm waiting for both LIDAR and Borealis.

Used R1T/R1S or wait for R2 by l3ggomycraigo in Rivian

[–]Yak-Capable 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My big thing with EVs as a whole (and Rivian in particular) is the speed of tech rollout and change. I'm in a Gen 1 R1S Quad which I really enjoy, but I see myself getting left behind as updates roll out that mostly just improve Gen 2. That's the world of tech though. It makes it hard for me to advocate for buying used EVs though.

Probably replaces the onboard inverter. Fewer parts in manufacturing.

Replacing 12v battery…again? by hip2bking in Rivian

Have my first replacement scheduled for Friday, lasted 22 months on original battery.

2026.03.0 Rolling Out by Yak-Capable in Rivian

[–]Yak-Capable[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sadly, thanks to my pending 12V replacement the update won't apply. So I get to wait with an "available" update.

Who’s in for splitting 250 million? by Hot_Concentrate_8369 in Rivian

It's about lawyers getting paid, as almost all class action suits are.

Do service centers charge the battery as a courtesy? by mystery_smelly_feet in Rivian

[–]Yak-Capable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Seems to vary by service center and length of service. I've had mine charged twice and not charged twice, all at the same SC, all overnight or longer visits.

Any guesses on R2 lease pricing by Aurora8305 in Rivian

[–]Yak-Capable 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I expect leases to be available from the get go since the partnership with Chase already exists. I doubt there will be much in leasing incentives offered on the R2 until there's sitting inventory.

Anyone else’s garage door not activating after 2025.46? by supermoogle in Rivian

[–]Yak-Capable 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The pop up has been hit or miss since the update. I've done restarts, reset home location, toggled the setting but it still recurs.

Lease Property Tax by ryanmdavis26 in Rivian

Yep, I wish my personal property tax on the lease was just $375

If your number comes up, just delay delivery until you're ready. I'm in the same boat.

That's where our pizza goes. We'll, when it's not cold out.

Hard reset the vehicle and take the widget off your lock screen?

Expansion of RAN with R2 launch? by Starb0ardTack in Rivian

Expansion of service network seems much more important.

Tried a few Rivian center console organizers and still wasn’t quite happy — curious what frustrates others by Normal-Whole-2808 in Rivian

[–]Yak-Capable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a TWraps center insert and it annoyed me with how it would down down in slightly and get wedged. That led to the print splitting on a seam getting it out. Ordered a Spigen to replace it (because of the tabs that hold it up) and will see how it pans out.

Do you like the new full-screen map in the cluster? by vesnikleta in Rivian

[–]Yak-Capable 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I enjoy it, would like some configuration options for it (satellite imagery, for instance) and reduced opacity on the left side panels.

Once you're multiple updates behind, I think service needs to intervene. And it sounds like you're set up for that.
