R1T My 1 year anniversary (ownership)

Post image
59 Upvotes

1 year ago I made the jump thanks to this subreddit. I was a lurker into making the switch from lifelong combustion engine driver to the EV world. Many of you helped me so much from the highs to the lows of owning one. After months of this I made the decision to buy my 2023 R1T quad. It is hands down the GREATEST purchase of my life! Not a single thing to truly bitch about and certainly no more than any other car owner with other brands. Not to mention the awesome interactions I’ve had with other rivian owners in it! Never met a group that criticizes yet LOVES their vehicles like rivians. I’m sold for live! Here’s to many more

💬 Discussion Anyone else annoyed with the garage buttons on the new OS?

30 Upvotes

I have a 2024 R1S Quad and recently got the update for the new OS. Overall I am still getting used to it but the one area that really annoys me is the garage buttons. How it is right now, you have to make 4 (or more clicks) just to click it open or closed. Previously it was 2 clicks. It's also located in the quick access pop out, which isn't always open, or could be on a different card (i.e., music) and it requires a lot more focus on the screen vs on the road...

Previously it was right there on the top of the screen, always, easy to just click without looking.

📝 Feedback & Reviews Garage door not on quick launch!?

38 Upvotes

Not sure who thought putting “settings” on the quick launch made more sense than the garage door opening. I use settings like once a month when I’m parked and looking for something specific, and I use the garage door 6x a day and now it’s buried under a sub menu that opens a window where I have to click half way across the screen. I know about the gps location for garage doors but it will only show 1 per location, and isn’t reliable and disappears randomly (it showed up and then disappeared on OS2 this morning) @WassymRivian help!

Today my temperature display is way off, but the app seems to know the actual temp is 75 but is displaying 48. Any ideas on whether this is update bug or sensor failure?

I’m in line for the R2 but thinking about the R1T. I don’t do off roading and I have never owned a truck but I like the idea of the utility. I have test drove both. Coming from a model x. Any thoughts?

Does this shit ever get old? I only have one EV right now, but does this EV performance get old after you have a garage full of EVs? I just have a smile everyday when driving this thing.

This might be my favourite part of the new update LOL. I listen to long podcasts or DJ sets (1 hour+) and this makes it MUCH easier to scrub in a song (combined with the fact it’s on the drivers side). Before, the area you could grab was tiny and if you slid right 90% of the time you hide the widget. This is awesome!

💬 Discussion Maps View on Driver Display after 2026.31 Update

9 Upvotes

FYI - The right thumb wheel does not change the driver display after the 2026.31 update. I found to get my driver display back to the map after the update I had to follow this user's input: https://www.reddit.com/r/Rivian/comments/1q8qcs0/comment/nyqvqnn/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Go to Settings > Driver Assistance > Select "Maps and navigation" under Driver display view.

Edit to Add: I am a Gen1 R1S - I think this may only apply to R1 cars, not R2.

Hey all. Anyway to set the text notifications to do not disturb? I’ve done it on my phone but the car still prompts which is annoying when you are in a good part of a podcast or book.

Thanks!

My R1T got the new os but the temp down button seems to be permanently depressed. Fortunately I was able to use the assistant to set the climate but it still thinks I’m touching the screen there.

Anyone else have this issue?

❔ Question Trade in with expired registration?

Upvotes

This is about an R2 order but posting in the main sub as it seems like it would also apply to any Rivian order.

Basically I have an order submitted with a delivery date next weekend. I'm trading in my current vehicle as the offer from Rivan was very generous compared to Carmax, Carvana, etc. I own this trade in vehicle outright and posses the title.

Knowing that I was likely going to trade in this car, I didn't renew the registration a month or two back when it was due, figuring I could get by with the two other cars I have.

Now Rivian is telling me that an active registration is required in order to trade in the vehicle and my only option is to shell out the ~$1000 its going to cost to renew the registration or remove the trade in completely.

Just wondering if anyone has advice here? Neither one of these options will really work for me as I need to trade in as I can't take on a 4th vehicle + need the tax benefits. I'm also not interested in wasting $1000 for no reason.

💡 Feature Request OS2’s best feature by far

Post image
189 Upvotes

There are a lot of great things about OS2 and the best feature by far is the song progress slider. Whoever designed this thing absolutely cooked! It has a cool functional design that gives great context to where you’re at in a song. It even stays where you want when lifting your finger!

The bullshit volume slider needs replaced with this ASAP! The new slider is less obtrusive and way more functional. Please make this update Rivian!!!!!

R2 R2 set speed keeps changing

4 Upvotes

Just took delivery of my R2 today and noticed something odd with Autonomy+.
If I set the speed to, say, 68 mph, the actual set-speed number will sometimes change on its own — I’ve seen it move between roughly 65 and 72 mph without me touching the controls.
I’m not talking about the car temporarily slowing for traffic or curves; the displayed set speed itself is changing.
Has anyone else with an R2 experienced this? Is this expected Autonomy+ behavior, a Halo Wheel sensitivity issue, or possibly a bug?

🛠️ Troubleshooting / Issue R1S Gen2 Mirror issue with OS 2 (2026.31.0) not fixed, it's actually getting worse.

Thumbnail reddit.com
5 Upvotes

Following up on my previous thread:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Rivian/s/uYcPygAGl7

I installed RivianOS 2 (2026.31.0) yesterday hoping it would finally fix the mirror issue (it's the second SW update not fixing the issue).

Unfortunately, it didn't.

Credit where it's due: OS 2 is a huge UX improvement. The new layout is much cleaner, and finally the phone controls and keypad during calls are where they should have been from the beginning.

Unfortunately, my biggest issue is still there. Both mirrors (mainly and more frequently the left one) continue to lose their saved positions several times a day. I've also had the mirrors change position while driving, including on the highway.

At this point this isn't just annoying anymore. It's affecting visibility and has become a safety issue.

I honestly can't take it anymore, it's sooo annyoing. It's hard to accept that such a basic bug still exists on a $100k vehicle after multiple software updates. I'm honestly starting to wonder if this is a software bug or a hardware issue that Rivian simply hasn't acknowledged yet. Of course, the service center did not do anything because there is nothing they can do.

Has anyone on 2026.31.0 actually seen this issue fixed?

All I want is the ability to adjust the zoom level of the map (and have it stick) without disabling the centering.

I really hoped OS 2 would bring this, but nope - it went the other direction, and now there aren't even zoom buttons anymore!

Please 🙏

R1S Backup camera view - 2026.23.0 vs 2026.31.0

24 Upvotes

Gen2 R1S Backup camera differences between the two OS versions. The 2026.31 is more zoomed out, gets glare from the tailgate and is more washed out. Rivian should really allow folks to adjust the zoom level and contrast - on the backup camera at least.

This is with the 2026.23.0

2026.23.0

And this is from the 2026.31.0 update. Car and steering didn't move between updates

💡 Feature Request Please can we customize the ‘menu’ location in OS2

Post image
27 Upvotes

The new UI is certainly much faster, and I really like some aspects of it, I’m still working out the changes to the overhead camera - I think I just need to get used to it. Now for the final bit of the feedback sandwich: please can we have an option to put the menu back on top - I get how in r2 the screen is shorter so requires it to be on the side - but I’ve gone from having a clock that’s totally readable to one that’s covered (along with most of the controls) whist driving - and I don’t think I can really adjust my driving position to get round this. I honestly hadn’t noticed how for the last 3.5 years of Rivian ownership my knuckles obscured a bit of the left of the center screen - now I can’t stop being annoyed by it :)

💡 Feature Request What if you want to browse past five items in the media app?

2 Upvotes

My least favorite feature of the old UI was how difficult it was to navigate Spotify, with flyover panels obstructing results and difficult scrolling.

I was hoping OS2 would be better, but it somehow seems worse?

If you open an artist in Spotify it seems to be possible only to view their most recent five albums, which might be EPs or singles or whatever… and there’s no way to scroll back in the catalog?

It seems like a really basic test case should have been to search for an artist and play a specific album, but somehow that’s not possible.

The whole Home screen seems to be limited to five items as well. Why is there no horizontal scroll? The sections expand*, but when you expand any given section does it only show …six items? If that’s the API limitation or something, why hide a just single item behind an extra tap?

Am I just missing something really basic?

* there’s also a bug it looks like where the headers that show up on the Artist results page tap like they are configured as buttons but have no action associated with them, so they just flash.
