Rivian’s R1T trucks and R1S SUVs are known for being adventurous, but they’ve had a few bumps in the road with safety recalls before. This time, though, it’s a pretty minor mistake.
It turns out a bunch of Rivian vehicles built between February and March this year are missing an airbag label on the dashboard. That’s important because it tells drivers about the airbags, but luckily, it’s an easy fix.
The rule says all cars with airbags need a sticker on the dashboard or steering wheel that everyone in the front seat can see. Here’s the funny thing: the sticker doesn’t even have to be permanent, kind of like those annoying reminders you get in a new car.
So, Rivian is just sending the missing sticker along with a letter explaining the recall to the affected owners. Since most people probably would have removed the sticker anyway, this should be a quick fix and nothing major to worry about.
