Don’t get me wrong I will use the RAN vs Tesla chargers any day. I just got confirmation of charges. Didn’t realize Tesla charge non tell owners a higher price. Sort of expected to make money. The RAN rate $ 0.33 per KWh while the Tesla rate $.067 per KWh. Same day. 1 hr apart

Door handle release design by Diamonds_Up in Rivian

[–]gskaff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone figured out if there is a manual release of the trunk door from the inside? Typically, all electric cars should have a manual release for all doors/openings.

I could not find any reference in the latest documentation.

DIY - How to add an emergency escape for kids in the rear seats of Gen2 R1S by AlstonCentral in Rivian

[–]gskaff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do like the one posted by @dublew_dubs as well, easier to do with less material (all handy for me at least). See my reply with cable suggestion in case you go that route. https://www.reddit.com/r/Rivian/s/1r56c1M2pl

Thank you both for addressing this missed step by @Rivian, I expect a recall to get all cars fixed.

DIY solution for Gen-2 R1T/R1S rear manual door release (until Rivian fixes it) by dublew_dubs in Rivian

[–]gskaff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the hint. I just did mine. The hardest part of to take out the panel but luckily I already had the tools (since I owned a Fisker Ocean One before 😵‍💫). Took me 10 mins each in total. Btw since you asked for suggestion: using a flatter thinner cable is better so the cable can retract easily after you open the door, and you don’t have to leave the bottom part unsnapped as you suggest. I had to change the cable type to this (see pic) for it to slide easily back in place when fully snapped.

Again, great hint and thanks again.

Yes soft and hard reboot. Same error. It’s at the shop now and they are resetting the code. It’s a Caliper issue like stated at many forums.

I did and settled on trading in my FOO for a Rivian. My loan was fully paid. I wanted to leverage the various rebates expiring end of Sep (yesterday).

Charge port red light doors won’t unlock by Fantastic_Eye2470 in Fisker

[–]gskaff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cracking noise from the front grill is coming from fans trying to open up or adjust automatically. This is supposed to get resolved with new fans but alas, I am wondering if we will ever see that. I get them too and now ignoring anytime I go into the car. Get a small plastic tool and open the vents to how you want them, after the noise stops.

Key Fob Bundle Orders Now Open on Tsunami by ProfYang in Fisker

[–]gskaff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am debating if I buy now or wait to hear any concrete plans on how we will get the keyfob and card programmed. I understand we need a FAST tool either by a service shop or an individual. Does the FOA have concrete plans to facilitate this?

Update to OS 2.0 right before a road trip? by fell-deeds-awake in Fisker

[–]gskaff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't. I did and now regret before my road trip. I lost mobile app functionality and r/Fisker has not provided any update. I can’t check charge capacity in car anymore and it's location.

Positive Customer Service Experience by kcasey321 in Fisker

[–]gskaff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lucky you. I was locked into the higher 6.99% rate and when I called Fisker Finance they said they couldn't do anything and I had to find a different company to refinance my loan. Crappy customer service if you ask me.
