The 2025 Rivian R1T has 2 recalls, both involving exterior lighting failures that reduce visibility and raise the risk of a crash. In cold weather, the low beam headlights can fail to turn on when the vehicle starts, leaving the driver without forward lighting. A separate software issue tied to the Car Costume feature can prevent certain exterior lights from activating, making the truck harder for other drivers to see.
