There are some great things about the Rivian R1S but that's not to say there aren't any issues with them. I've been blessed with a few issues that are still ongoing. I hope this helps with setting some realistic expectations, especially with a new car company. With all this said, we still love our R1S!

We have our R1S since September 2023 with same alignment issues and was fixed in one service appointment. We had our front passenger door handle retracting when opened and it took multiple trips to get it resolved. I have a right front door panel that is not lined up but not a big deal resulted from stamping I guess. The front camera looks like it needs recalibration and have an appointment. One thing I've consistently experienced is that Rivian has an excellent service team and dedication and I know your issues will be resolved. Yes, we are part of some of these small headaches especially for a startup, but out the door for their 1st EVs (three at once, then three again) they did a fantastic job compared to Tesla which we have as well. Considering we purchased our R1S before the price increase in March 2022, you are never going to get any quad motor SUV this capable for $75k. Rivian will succeed and I'm looking to add the R3 in our family.
Thanks for sharing. Do you know if they did anything other than alignment? Or the alignment numbers? Glad many of your issues were resolved. I also had great customer service so I have confidence they will get to a solution soon. Also can't wait to check out the R3 in person!
I've had my R1S since October last year and I have had none of these issues - and most owners that I know haven't had them either.
Hoping to be problem free soon!
Same steering issue
I'll reply back if I find any more useful info on alignment in the future
Looks like your tire pressure is lower on the right side, front and back
Even 1lb of difference could be noticeable - ask a race car driver.
That's a good catch! I checked and both right side tires are 1 PSI lower than the left. I'll try inflating it and get back with results.
I filled up both the right tires and drove ~150 miles. Still seems to be pulling right unfortunately.
@@ChargeSetGo it was worth a shot. Always keep your tire pressure in mind.
Thanks for the follow-up
