Plymouth, MI – June 24, 2025 – Rivian (NASD:RIVN) is recalling 27,882 electric pickup trucks and SUVs whose turn signals may fail to engage. This defect makes the vehicle less visible to other drivers, upping the risk of a crash and injury.
The following models are affected:
- 2025 Rivian R1S
- 2025 Rivian R1T
Recall summary
The front turn signals of the affected vehicles may fail to illuminate when the driver engages them. This happens because of an internal flaw within the turn signal’s assembly.
The car maker is not aware of any accidents or injuries caused by this defect.
Recall risks
With rear turn signal lights not working, other motorists may not be aware of the driver’s intention to make a turn. This can lead to a crash, increasing the risk of an injury.
Warning signs
A malfunctioning turn signal will trigger a warning message on the driver’s display. In addition, the speed of the turn signal’s blinking indicator will double.
Other Rivian recalls
The last major Rivian recall was back in April 2023, when R1S SUVs were recalled because their reverse lights failed to illuminate when backing up.
In March 2023, Rivian recalled pickup trucks and SUVs whose front airbags did not deploy in a crash due to a defective seat belt mechanism.
