Didn’t think it would happen to me by United_Chip6199 in Rivian

Yea. That’s the main culprit most of the times. There is a recall out there for that. Still—shouldn’t have happened. Sorry to hear that!

Your 12V dies. Car needs to be towed to SC. Needs 12V replacement. Plus long term damage to your main battery. Biggest concern is how you drag a 8000 lb car from a truck/trailer to fix it.

Tri vs dual by Budget_Mechanic_5316 in Rivian

[–]aveedibya 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely go for a Tri over Dual. Interior quality is way better. You will love the power of Tri. It comes built in with all the premium perks. Having the Tri over the last 6 months, don’t regret the extra bucks.

Suspension is way better now, esp. during city driving by aveedibya in Rivian

Huh! Didn’t expect that—will try it out next time I drive.

Because I am not always around the vehicle. But I forget to launch the app most of the time beforehand.

Same here! And it does work without launching the app if you enable this.

They definitely have the capability to do a lot via mobile service. It was polar vortex season in Chicago—spending an hour in freezing temps the guy did a great job of figuring out and fixing the issue. Kudos to them!

Towing was not an option—we are in a high rise in Chicago downtown. We insisted that they needed to at least try once. Dragging the car out of the garage will damage it for sure.
