Rivian Automotive is recalling approximately 12,716 of its 2022 R1T and R1S vehicles because a sensor in the front passenger seat belt system may malfunction. This faulty sensor can incorrectly identify the seat belt status, which may lead to the passenger air bag being suppressed or deploying incorrectly during a crash. To resolve this issue, Rivian dealers will inspect and replace the necessary seat belt system components at no cost to owners.
If the seat belt sensor fails, the air bag may not deploy as intended during a collision, significantly increasing the risk of serious injury to the front passenger.
