Rivian is recalling 869 of its 2022-2025 R1T and 2022-2026 R1S vehicles because the bolts securing the second-row seat belt assemblies may not be tightened correctly. This defect involves the driver and passenger side seat belt retractors in the second row. Rivian service technicians will inspect and tighten these bolts for free to ensure the safety equipment works as intended. Owner notification letters were mailed in early March 2026.
If a seat belt retractor is not properly secured, it may fail to restrain a passenger during a crash. This defect significantly increases the risk of serious injury to occupants in the second row during a collision.
