What's wrong, in plain English

In some Rivian R1T and R1S vehicles, the accelerator pedal may not detect when you release it. This can prevent 'auto-hold' or 'park' from activating the way it's supposed to.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
2. Contact Rivian customer service at 1-888-748-4261; Rivian will send a software update and replace the accelerator pedal.
3. The repair is free of charge.
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 23V883000.
