Just to add a different anecdote: I have a 2021 radrunner I use daily in Seattle (hilly & rainy), love it, and I have non of these complaints. I have 4 friends with Rads who love them as well.

I don't doubt any of your experiences, but I mention this so readers can get more perspectives.

Perhaps one significant difference between us is that Rad has a showroom / repair shop in Seattle, although I haven't needed them for anything other than easier parts pickup (fenders and break pads.)

Yes I have a 2021 radrunner as well and it's been fabulous. I tow my daughters trailer with it (had to put in a lock washer to keep it all together - $.35) and it's a blast. I've had one slow leak on the front tire, $20 to repair. Otherwise we're approaching 700km with no problems and lots of fun. Couldn't be happier with the build quality.
