New model reveal: what matters beyond the headline specs?

Tried a second charger / second scan and the story on the 2024 Rivian R1S didn't change. I'd rather look cautious in this thread than stuck later.

Don't clear the alert just to make the screen pretty. Leave the alerts on the 2024 Rivian R1S so service can see what you saw. I'd do that before spending real money. Any freeze-frame data saved? Not interested in a five-hour wait for a shrug.

Charge curves lie if you don't match starting SOC and temp. Match starting SOC and battery temp if you're comparing 2024 Rivian R1S charge sessions. That's where I'd start. Have you gotten a second quote in writing? A day of patience here is cheaper than a wrong part. If the story changes I'll post the new data.

I'd treat 12V warnings as a no-ignore. On the 2024 Rivian R1S, I'd get the 12V/DC-DC side checked even if the traction pack looks fine. I'd do that before spending real money. On “what matters beyond the headline specs,” that was the fork that mattered for me. This is from a 2024 Rivian R1S in Charlotte with 8,200 miles. Just my two cents from doing this recently. I'll update if anything new shows up.

Low-voltage gremlins will strand you even with a full pack. Try a second charger before blaming the 2024 Rivian R1S — site sharing and pack temp change the curve a lot. That's where I'd start. Was this after sitting overnight? Doing the boring step first on purpose.
