2022 RIVIAN R1T Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2022 Rivian R1T has 10 recalls, the most serious involving a front suspension fastener that can loosen and separate, causing a complete loss of steering control. Several recalls center on occupant restraint. The front seat belts may not have been properly installed and can loosen or detach in a crash, and the front seat belt anchors may not be adequately secured to the B-pillar. Second-row seat belt retractors may also be improperly tightened and could fail to hold occupants during a collision. On the airbag side, a faulty sensor in the front passenger seat belt system can cause the airbag to suppress or deploy incorrectly in a crash, and the passenger seat's occupant classification sensor may not deactivate the airbag when a child or child seat is present, raising the risk of injury from deployment. Damaged attachment clips on upper pillar trim panels can also interfere with side curtain airbag deployment. Rear suspension toe links on certain vehicles may not have been properly reinstalled after service and can loosen or separate, reducing stability and raising the risk of losing control. A software update on some vehicles disabled the windshield defroster and defogger controls, which can reduce driver visibility in cold or humid conditions. There is also a recall for an incorrect maximum vehicle capacity weight printed on the tire placard label.
