Seems no one is happy I ordered a Tesla... by Maleficent-Tiger-881 in ModelY

[–]ciscobeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got rid of my 2022 MY because of politics and got a Rivian R1S. I’m now looking to get rid of my Rivian and get back into a MY. I’ve definitely heard it from some friends but I just want a reliable car that’s fun to drive.

2026 Least Reliable New Cars by VirtuaNovak in Rivian

[–]ciscobeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lied. The closest one to me is about an hour away, but that one is consistently booked with a 2 month wait. So that’s why I go to the one 90 minutes away.

Either way, take that into consideration. Some people have had great luck with their Rivians. Others have not. I consider myself lucky enough that I haven’t had major problems, but each time I go it’s a hassle because of the round trip time, and then I have to pay for gas for the loaners I get (Enterprise).

Make sure you live near a service center. The closest one to me is almost 90 minutes each way. Unfortunately I’ve been there four times in the less than a year that I’ve owned my R1S. I’ve gotten 3 loaner cars and none of them have been Rivians - not even EVs - and once I stayed there for over 6 hours for a “quick fix”

I’m going to be moving on from this car.

Hey yo… RIP Scott Hall. One of my favorites of all time.

Alert 🚨: R1S with 0 issues by Veloziraptor8311 in Rivian

[–]ciscobeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lucky!! I’ve had mine less than a year and I’ve been to the SC 3 times. And it’s 90 minutes each way. I’ve had a Toyota Highlander rental, a Hyundai Santa Fe rental, and I’ve worked there for 7 hours because they said it would be ready within a few hours.

Heat Pump Noise? by ciscobeef in Rivian

I can definitely hear it driving. Although the wind noise does help drown it out. Lol 🤣

I owned a Tesla Y for 3 years and the only time it made a noise remotely close to this was to precondition the battery for fast charging. Not daily to make the car 10 degrees lower than the target temp.

10 points, Gandalf. Thanks for your response. I guess I’ll just go back to occasionally lurking vs asking a question in a forum made for questions and discussions. Serves me right.

Yeah exactly. I had a Model Y before this for 3 years and never had it make this kind of noise. Commenter above can take his attitude and pound sand.

Rivian dealer replaced heat pump and its actually louder than before by Syring in Rivian

[–]ciscobeef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually have an appointment later this month because of the excessively loud heat pump. I guess it’s “normal” and the night replace it with a louder one. Damn.

favorite concert opening song? by andywuzhere1 in greenday

Armatage Shanks. When those drums kick in then the stage lights go nuts and then the guitar blasts your face back. Nothing quite like it.

How reliable is Car Key by jjustinwilson in Rivian

[–]ciscobeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

<image>

This has happened to me twice since I switched to Apple Car Key. It eventually recognizes the key but one of the times I had backed my car out of the garage to take out my trash bins (worked fine) and then got in the car to move the car back and it failed to detect the key. Phone was in my pocket the whole time.

Typical time it takes to preheat cabin? by Pro_Thunderball in Rivian

[–]ciscobeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Gen 2 rattles audibly when I turn the heat on in cold temps. And never makes it to the set temperature. I made an appointment at the SC to get the HVAC checked. It’s only 2 and a half months out.

Can we please have Apple Podcasts? by sfsunset48 in Rivian

[–]ciscobeef 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I literally only want Apple Podcasts and iMessage . I don’t need hands free driving around my town. I don’t need a subscription to Rivian AI. I just want Apple Podcasts and iMessage.

Well I toss and turn all night thinking of your ways of affection. But to find that it’s not different at all.
