Rivian Automotive is recalling 30 of its 2022-2023 R1S vehicles because the fasteners holding the side curtain air bags on both the right and left sides may not be properly secured. This manufacturing defect means the air bags may not deploy correctly or stay in place during a collision, failing to provide the intended protection to occupants. Rivian has already notified affected owners, and all repairs are expected to be completed by March 15, 2023, through their service network.
If the side curtain air bags are not properly fastened, they may not perform as intended during a crash, significantly increasing the risk of injury for the driver and passengers.
Secure or replace side curtain air bags
