Defective charge port door that has no manual release. If it gets stuck, the vehicle can no longer be charged, potentially stranding the driver. Only solution is a service visit.
Critical battery issue, made the truck inoperable and stuck in my garage. Rivian replaced the main battery pack and the drained 12v batteries. One day after getting the truck back while I was driving, the truck motors stopped in a jarring fashion in the middle of dark one lane road. Error message said motor failure. Then got the same critical battery issue. Once the main battery dies it drains the 12v batteries; thereby, turning off the emergency lights. There is a major issue with the battery packs. It is incredibly dangerous that the motors shut down not allowing me to coast and move the truck to a safe spot. The 12v draining when there is a main battery pack failure; thereby, shutting off the emergency lights in a design flaw.
