Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)Subframe has cracked. It is a known issue for my vehicle as the welded subframe isn’t strong enough to hold the weight of my vehicle over time. Thus compromising the structural integrity over time, leading to severe safety hazards like unpredictable handling, poor stability, and potential failure of critical components. This can lead to accidents if not resolved. Rivian currently knows this is an issue and charges customers who are out of warranty over $11k to repair.
the electronic door handles are malfunctioning and not opening or staying open. when they stay in and dont present, the door remains locked and cannot be opened from the outside. This is a safety hazard if an occupant cannot exit the vehicle in an emergency and the door cannot be opened from the outside. I have already had one (drivers door) replaced and now both rear passenger doors are malfunctioning. this is an intermittent problem. I believe this to be a manufacturing defect that should be covered at the cost of the manufacturer.
The front driver’s side door became stuck shut while inside the vehicle, forcing the driver to have to exit the vehicle by crawling across the inside of the vehicle and out the passenger’s side door. Repeated attempts to unlock and open the door from both inside and outside the vehicle (reaching through the door window to the exterior door latch) were unsuccessful. The manufacturer confirmed the problem and attempted to fix it on three occasions, replacing various door components and assuring me that the problem was fixed. However, the issue reoccurred each time and is still unsolved.
