Examples of what owners have reported to NHTSA (unverified excerpts):

While driving with a passenger in the front seat, I noticed the passenger airbag was not enabled. Seems the passenger is not detected. Sometime having the passenger moving around or adjusting the seat/seatbelt would fix the issue and the airbag will enable. Randomly occurs and randomly fixes.

2023 Rivian R1T owner, WA, NHTSA complaint 11573682, filed February 23, 2024

The seat belt came completely dislodged from the seat base as my passenger was getting into the car and fastening their seat belt…

2022 Rivian R1T owner, MI, NHTSA complaint 11761200, filed September 1, 2026

We purchased our Rivian two weeks ago today from a private seller, and Rivian will not transfer ownership of the truck to us despite multiple calls, emails, and online chats. This is a safety, security, and privacy issue.

Can recall 25V370 make my R1T a lemon in California?

Not by itself. A recall repair that fails, or repeat dealer visits for the same defect, can support a California lemon law claim.

Recall 25V370000 does not automatically make your R1T a lemon. California's Song-Beverly Act asks two questions: does a warranty defect substantially impair the vehicle's use, value or safety, and did the manufacturer fail to fix it in a reasonable number of tries (Civ. Code 1793.2(d))?

A seat belt that does not latch or retract correctly on the 2022-2025 Rivian R1T affects safety directly, and a failed recall repair is a repair attempt under California law.

This is not the first recall for this problem. When a manufacturer has to recall the same anchorage again, that suggests the earlier fix did not work. If your 2022-2025 Rivian R1T has had this repair more than once, keep every repair order.

Earlier campaigns on these vehicles involving the same component: 22V641000.

For the first 18 months or 18,000 miles, California presumes the manufacturer had enough chances if the R1T went in two or more times for a defect likely to cause death or serious injury, four or more times for the same defect, or spent more than 30 days in the shop (Civ. Code 1793.22(b)). Direct notice to the manufacturer is required for some of these. The presumption is a shortcut, not the only path to a claim.

An owner who prevails in a lemon law case can recover reasonable attorney fees and costs from the manufacturer (Civ. Code 1794(d)). You pay nothing, win or lose. We are paid only if you win, and the manufacturer pays our fees, including in settlements. If a case is lost, our firm covers the costs.
