Official summary
Rivian is launching a technical service bulletin for some model year 2022 R1T vehicles that might have early revisions of interior door handles. In some situations, the handle might snap back when it is released, exerting excess force on the handle and potentially breaking it. If a vehicle is serviced for a broken handle, Rivian will proactively replace all 4 interior door handles with upgraded components.
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
