Except for having to replace an axle two weeks after purchase -- for which I was well compensated by Volvo -- totally smooth sailing. No infotainment issues, no software issues, just a great driving experience every time I get behind the wheel. The only drawback is when we use our 14-year-old Toyota 4Runner to go to our remote mountain place with the bone-jarring final few miles that I don't want to inflict on my P8, well it just seems so outmoded, much as I admire how it has performed through 223,000 miles. The P8 is our first electric car, so I have nothing to compare it to, but based on my experience I would buy it again in a heartbeat. And I'm starting to think that when the 4Runner goes belly up, a Rivian with the 14-inch clearance might be just the ticket for our winter mountain driving.I am scheduled to take delivery tomorrow or more likely on Wednesday of this week. I am excited about the car but I am also getting more and more worried about the car after reading this forum for the last several weeks. What am I getting myself into? A great car? An expensive headache?
I have read opinions on the car such as: no car is perfect, all have issues etc. My Toyota NEVER had any issues whatsoever. It turned on and went and turned on again etc. This car is miles away from my Toyota as far as tech, but still. Cars should be able to perform the basics: turn on, go, charge (in this case) repeat.
So, like the title says - has anyone had nothing but smooth sailing?
