Fred hated Elon and Tesla and most are false or
Half truths. He did an article last year that they were rubbing off foundation series trucks selling them as non foundation. We all know that was BS.
As someone who also has a rivian I can tell you at least in SoCal it’s an absolute disaster. 5 month waits to get in. Had 17 service appointments on my R1T. Many repeat issues.
Does anyone have the service notes they can share with them replacing the motor? My SC said they sent the noise recording to Tesla and they wouldn’t replace. Mine sounds like a bad wheel bearing noise but it’s definitely in the motor.
I have this same motor noise issue. Service said Tesla mothership said it’s normal. It doesn’t seem normal. I also have a rattle in the air vents under the dash they can’t fix currently. Any rough road it triggers it.
