2025 Rivian R1S, Rivian Redundant R 1 T: Electrical System recall

NHTSA campaign 24V827000 · 5,128 units potentially affected · filed Nov 1, 2024

What's wrong

Rivian Automotive, LLC (Rivian) is recalling certain 2025 R1T and R1S vehicles. Software version 2024.39.30 may prevent certain exterior lights from turning on when the Car Costume feature is activated.

Why it matters

Deactivated exterior lighting reduces the vehicle's visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.

Rivian has released an over-the-air (OTA) software update, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 18, 2024. Owners may contact Rivian customer service at 1-888-748-4261. Rivian's number for this recall is FSAM-1552.
