RCA-68-22-001-1: Replace 3rd Row Seat Backrests
Rivian is initiating a customer satisfaction campaign for some model year 2022 R1S vehicles that were built
with 3rd row seat backrests that may be prone to cosmetic damage when excessive weight is placed on
the backrests in the folded down position. Rivian will replace the 3rd row seat backrests with upgraded
components. Rivian is launching this campaign for customer satisfaction and to ensure the quality of Rivian
vehicles.
