    Reliability

    We expect the 2025 R1T will be much less reliable than the average new car. This prediction is based on data from 2022 and 2023 models and the Rivian brand score.

    The 2022 Rivian R1T has been recalled 8 times by NHTSA. View Recalls

    Owner Reported Trouble Spots

    The Reliability score is based on our latest subscriber survey of 2022 Rivian R1T owners. The owner comments describe problems respondents experienced with this vehicle.

    Electrical Accessories

    Cruise control, clock, warning lights, body control module, keyless entry, wiper motor or washer, tire pressure monitor, interior or exterior lights, horn, gauges, 12V power plug, USB ports, alarm or security system, remote engine start, heated or cooled seats, heated steering wheel, headlights, automatic headlights, automatic wipers, wireless charging pad.

    What Owners Say

    12V battery

    "Both of the 12v batteries (which power the electrical & auxiliary systems, not the car itself) died. We got numerous warnings from the vehicle system which would come & go. Spoke to Rivian about how to resolve the warning, they immediately offered to transport the truck to their service center 4 hours away over 2 mountain passes in winter. But then the error messages stopped. As holiday travel for us was approaching, we mutually decided to wait. After we returned from our Christmas trip, the vehicle was DOA. At that time, Rivian service couldnt contact the car over the internet because the car was dead so , they couldnt get further diagnostics. The nearest Rivian service centers were booked out 3+ months, so they scheduled us for a mobile appt 6 weeks out. We were offered a free rental car which we declined. A mobile service van arrived at our house (we live in a remote location) and the friendly, competent technician fixed the problem as well as resolved some of the outstanding recall issues. The issues here are because Rivian is new, novel car maker. Their service system, while excellent, has not yet scaled to the amount of vehicles now in use. Also, their design philosophy is to save the owner from any maintenance. This meant the 12v batteries couldnt be accessed or changed by the owner without voiding the warranty. I hope they change that in the future because it meant we were without that car for over 6 weeks."

Vehicle completely shut down after going into limp mode for a few minutes. Needed flat bed tow and battery pack replacement. This took about a week at the service center to resolve."
