## What is wrong

Rivian Automotive, LLC \(Rivian\) is recalling certain 2022\-2023 R1T and R1S vehicles.  A software update may have deactivated the defroster and defogger system controls.


## What can happen

The inability to operate the windshield defrosting and defogging system can decrease the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Rivian has released an over\-the\-air \(OTA\) software update, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed December 21, 2023.  Owners may contact Rivian customer service at 1\-888\-748\-4261.  Rivian's number for this recall is FSAM\-1331.
