What is being recalled

Rivian Automotive, LLC (Rivian) is recalling certain 2022 R1T vehicles. The Occupant Classification System (OCS) may not deactivate the air bag when a child or child seat occupies the front passenger seat. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."

Why it is dangerous

A child in the front seat may be at a greater risk of injury in the event of a passenger air bag deployment during a crash.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

Rivian Service Centers will replace the front passenger seat, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 6, 2022. Owners may contact Rivian customer service at 1-734-855-4345. Rivian's number for this recall is FSAM-651.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 22V-319 when calling a dealer.
