Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Rivian is recalling 24,214 of its 2025 R1S and R1T vehicles because the Hands-Free Highway Assist (HWA) software may fail to correctly identify a vehicle traveling in front of the driver. This issue affects vehicles operating on software versions prior to 2025.18.30. Rivian is providing a free over-the-air (OTA) software update to resolve the defect.

Risk

The software's failure to detect a lead vehicle prevents the assist system from functioning correctly, which increases the likelihood of a collision or crash.

What You Should Do

  1. The recalled vehicles are 2025 Rivian R1S and R1T models running any software version earlier than 2025.18.30.
  2. Check your vehicle's current software version through the center display; if it is older than 2025.18.30, ensure your vehicle is connected to a network to receive the automatic update.
  3. Install the free over-the-air (OTA) software update provided by Rivian to correct the Highway Assist software logic.
  4. Contact Rivian customer service at 1-888-748-4261 and reference recall number FSAM-1744 if you have questions about the update or haven't received it.
  5. Call the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov/recalls for more information.
