| RCA-60-23-001-1 | 2023-12-01. Service bulletin. Rivian is initiating a customer satisfaction campaign for some 2022 R1T vehicles that may have been builtwith hydraulic suspension jounce lines that could contact the front underbody subframe panel and/or the front wheel liners. Over time the hydraulic suspension jounce lines may rub through due to this contact. As a result, the vehicle may experience a loss of hydraulic pressure, suspension sag, increased body roll, and/ or the vehicle may enter a reduced performance safe-state mode with limited speed. If the vehicle enters a reduced performance safe-state mode, there will be a notification displayed and a malfunction indicator lamp illuminated on the driver display. Rivian will replace the front underbody panel and the front wheel liners with updated parts that will not interfere with the front hydraulic suspension jounce lines. Rivian is launching this campaign for customer satisfaction and to ensure the quality of Rivian vehicles. |

Rivian is launching a technical service bulletin for some model year 2022 R1T vehicles that are equipped with an early revision upper tailgate trim panel. If easily-damaged cargo is placed against the tailgate while it is closed, the upper tailgate trim panel could abrade the cargo when the vehicle is in motion. Upon customer complaint, Rivian will replace the upper tailgate trim panel with an updated component that has a rubber insert designed to protect cargo. |

Rivian will update the firmware of the module to enable it to receive updated HD map information. Rivian is launching this campaign for customer satisfaction and to ensure the quality of Rivian vehicles. |
| RCA-96-23-001-1 | 2023-09-07. Service bulletin.

A leaking tire sealant kit may stain or damage the other components inside the auxiliary air compressor kit. Additionally, the reduced volume of remaining sealant may not be sufficient to seal larger holes in a damaged tire, which the customer would determine when following the instructions in the owner's guide or on the tire sealant kit. Rivian will replace the tire sealant kit or, if the tire sealant kit is already leaking, will replace the entire auxiliary air compressor kit. Rivian is launching this campaign for customer satisfaction and to ensure the quality of Rivian vehicles. |
