What's wrong, in plain English

The bolts that attach the front seat belts to the vehicle's frame may not have been tightened properly when these vehicles were built. If an anchor point isn't securely fastened, the seat belt attached to it won't hold the person wearing it as firmly as it's meant to. This means the belt may not do its job as well as it should when it matters most.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your vehicle is affected.
2. Contact Rivian customer service at 1-888-748-4261 or your service center to have the seat belt anchors inspected.
3. The repair is free.

Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Your VIN is the 17-character code on the lower left of the windshield, on your registration and usually on your insurance card. Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 22V641000.
