What's wrong, in plain English
On certain Rivian R1S and R1T vehicles, one or both of the front turn signals may fail to light up and flash. Because the front turn signals may not work, these vehicles do not meet the federal safety standard for lights and reflectors. Rivian will have the front turn signals inspected and replaced if needed, at no cost. This recall expands an earlier Rivian recall, number 25V387.
