I just stumbled upon this video but a build quality review from a detailer is such a good combination! My detail guy knows my vehicle way better than I ever could 😊
Coleton's videos have helped me out tremendously as an R1S owner. With ocean cost interior, I purposely do not wear denim so seats don't wear. I do have a rear passenger door that is off a hair, but would never know how to look for this stuff if not for these videos. Btw, Coleton's video on how to keep your ocean coast interior looking new was a master class. Cheers to you!
This is the only OOS channel I have bells turned on 🔔❤
Perfect timing. My wife said she wanted a Rivian today (surprised she even knew the brand!). This video gives me confidence that they stand behind their products enough to improve things they’re hearing from customers. Awesome.
If I were getting a Rivian in 2024 I would lease it. That way you can turn it in when the NACS charge port ones come out and get one of those. That might be time to buy.
@@frankcoffey thank you for the good good recommendation
Ty Coleton. Love you channel. very detailed and very knowledgeable
Just reserved my future Rivian R2 Tesla nearly had be with their Model Y 0.99% financing. However after seeing the R2 release, the new internal EV drivetrain and the fact that they are also deploying their own supercharger network along with their stellar service/owner reviews. At this point I am super confident in Rivian as a company and will be also investing after seeing all the recent updates.
I’ve had to have a door handle aligned, rear gate top and bottom were rubbing and now I noticed a rear door that is rubbing against the body when closing. I will say that they have been coming to my house to fix these items while I work and provided me two free tubes of touch up paint, so I’m not super upset about these things.
Thank you for the detailed video! This was really helpful and is making me more confident in keeping my R2 reservation. I picked Rivian over Tesla because of quality control and I hope Rivian continues to listen and focus on fixing issues.
I am waiting for the R3!
Great video Colton! Can you tell me how many millimeters would be an unacceptable panel gap, where you would request a repair? Thank you.
Agree with ocean coast steering wheel. I kind of liked the headliner in white. Ocean coast truck got totaled and went with the black. My car seats put a black mark on the seat. Didn’t try too hard to remove the mark though. Also I like the non black rugs on black mountain interior. Helps open the space a bit.
I've been very interested in this vehicle. Thank you so much for pointing out the build qualities. I will now know what to look for before my decision is made. Also, some of those gaps are alarming for a $100,000 car. How much to correct all those misalignments and sinking engine hood? Bless!
Is there a VIN range you would recommend avoiding for the T?
Totally Agree, would have loved ocean coast but not with light headliner!
6-7mm is a huge gap. 10mm is a grand canyon on most modern cars.
I have a 2022 R1T and the quality on mine was amazing 30k miles and basically 0 issued. 😊
I too wish they would just make the charging port a simple hinge spring loaded cover. It would reduce complexity and some wiring and motor to open it.
Do you recommend using a coating on the interior seats, dash, door panels. Something like Gyeon LeatherShield?
Absolutely
man you covered everything
What is the source of the widespread wind noise? Any solutions?
What color option is the Rivian in this video?
You should put chapters on your videos.
Better, but not there enough for the price. Gaps are not the only issue. They are an indicator for other problems. Plus the design makes these so expensive to repair. I love the brand. Hoping it will get even better soon.
Looks like this one is pretty new, but not what's being built right now. They are up to VIN range ending in 40,000+ now.
Hence why it says “2024” in the title. Customer took delivery 1 1/2 months ago
I always get annoyed about the motorized charge port, especially as someone who lives with a lot of ice and snow.
My 2024 built R1S still have many panel gaps issue!
I wish my R1S is like this shown. This is perfect. Mine has the same colors exterior and interior
Two solid clicks and mine wakes up no problem. You’re clicking too much. 😂
EV9 is much bigger than the R1S? Really? Maybe the 2nd row only, but besides that I'd give the size to the R1S. Especially w/ the MUCH larger Frunk.
Interior space in all 3 rows is much more spacious in EV9. R1S of course has much bigger frunk
Thanks, but this is just one data point. Cannot make an accurate blanket statement saying 2024 build quality is better based off one... There are still plenty with issues. :(
But soooo many people make blanket statements based off one or very few. Such as EVs all catch fire. Studies have shown that EVs catch fire much much less than ICE. 1500 per 100k vehicles for ICE versus 25 per 100k vehicles for EV. EV fires just get more press because they're newer, more difficult to extinguish, and a political push (from one side) to badmouth them.
Lol this example isn’t even good either. It would be considered a fail by normal standards. The rivian fanboyism is getting suspect on this channel. Would be nice if he credited automotive press for his new methodologies which is clearly who he is copying
A fancy/electric Jeep Grand Cherokee
Any gap over 4mm is far below industry standard, if I spent more than 75k on a vehicle and saw any gap big enough to fit a pinky finger in I would be disappointed. A Toyota Corolla blows this thing away in panel fit
only fanboys of certain EV company that starts with the letter T doesn't care about panel gap or build quality.

Oh so the Rivian has remote control issues too, but no out cry about it . Hmm . Yet there owners bitch about every other Manufacturers issues. Hypocrites.
Yep. I’m getting tired of the double standards on this network as well
your work shines and i mean excellence, ohio here, i have not made a trip out west, looks desirable and my xt6 would like the love you spend on it getting it detailed, never know with me :)
Kyle and company take their vehicles to you to restore the shine, i hope you charge them for your time. love out of spec everything, beautiful gray green color on this Rivian
Toss a rock at the windshield 🥲 they’re so brittle. Rivian needs to come up with better windshields for their R1 models
best video I have seen today
Your videos are WAY longer than they need to be. YT viewers have short attention spans. You could have made your point in a 15-20 minute video. I bailed 1/3 of the way through.
