Yikes. Sounds like some of those who took this OTA quickly may need a physical repair.
Oh man that’s terrible news. Unfortunately poop happens. Undoubtably this will echo in the stock market and in future comments about the company, but I hope the impact is not that bad in reality.
Thank goodness. That’s a devilish OTA!I started downloading 1/2 way, and then it was stopped. I guess I got lucky Rivian canceled deployment in middle of my OTA update.
I really like Rivian and want to see them succeed. I think options in the EV market like Lucid, Rivian, and Tesla will drive more infrastructure and continued innovation in the EV market.I think their stock was somehow sustained by their software praised despite already down about 90% since peak.

My one concern is Tesla riding the first to market wave with little to no incentive to continue to innovate. I’ll be happy to be wrong and they continue to innovate because they command a tremendous amount of sway in the EV industry and charging infrastructure and can make immediate impacts in the industry if they so desired.
It's weird, I don't see much press about this, but if Lucid did the same thing, it'd be on every news site and on Twitter/X within seconds.Lucid really needs to learn from Rivian’s mistake and insure that the proper processes are in place to prevent such an issue. Lucid cannot afford this type of mistake! Fortunately, for me, my Rivian is at the service center right now getting a panel adjustment and rattle issue resolved. They’ve had it for two weeks, with no work being done on it.
Barrons: "Lucid update bricks a brick car made by a bankrupt company, is now the time to sell LCID stock?"It's weird, I don't see much press about this, but if Lucid did the same thing, it'd be on every news site and on Twitter/X within seconds.
This is true. I wouldn’t wish Lucid press on anyone.It's weird, I don't see much press about this, but if Lucid did the same thing, it'd be on every news site and on Twitter/X within seconds.
Yeah, rivian is refreshingly open compared to Lucid. They actually acknowledge the fact that there is an error very fast, they have blogs, etc.This is true. I wouldn’t wish Lucid press on anyone.
I like the way Rivian handled this. Simple message. “We fu$ked up. We’re going to fix it.”
Even Apple has bricked phones with updates in the past. Happens to the best of us.
It’s a shame I have no interest in Rivian’s products. I really do respect them as a company.

Also wait, you live in colorado. How is it legal to have no interest in Rivian?
I have grown to like the headlights on the Rivian. Although they still look goofy on those Amazon Prime vans.Must be that cartoonish headlights look. That front headlights took time to grow on me after seeing them now on streets almost daily basis.
It just happened last night and very brief window (1 hours), small damage caught in time.
