What's wrong?
The front seat belt D-ring on the 2022-2025 Rivian R1S and R1T is the upper anchor point for the shoulder belt. It sits near the B pillar, guides the belt at the occupant's shoulder, and helps transfer restraint loads into the vehicle body when the belt is pulled tight.
On affected vehicles, one or both front D-ring bolts were not properly installed during manufacturing. Rivian traced the issue to vehicles that went through a bypass process during installation. If the bolt joint does not have full strength, the front seat belt anchorage can be inadequately attached when load is applied.
An owner can notice a rattling noise from the D-ring area on the B pillar. That noise is the warning sign that the seat belt anchorage assembly is not properly secured to the height adjuster.

What's the safety risk?
The safety risk is failed restraint in a crash: an improperly secured seat belt anchorage leaves an occupant less protected and increases injury risk. A rattling noise from the D-ring area on the B pillar is the warning sign to treat seriously. Repair is free at any franchised Rivian dealer.
