What owners report
seat belt anchor failure
Same as several of our Rivian vehicles, the seat belt anchor is failing causing a major safety concern.
Same problem as many of our Rivian vans, the seat belt is coming loose at the anchor point causing a major safety concern.
The seat belt anchor for the lap belt has separated from the anchor point. It appears the cable is pulling apart as can be seen in photos I will be attaching. This is a huge safety concern however Rivian is telling us this is from a driver sitting on the seat belt. I am denying this accusation because we have cab facing cameras that detect this kind of behavior.
During normal operation of the this vehicle, the seatbelt pretensioner cable snapped when the driver attempted to buckle the seatbelt. This is where the lap belt portion is attached to the seat. The cable is frayed and breaks. This same defect has occurred on 5 of our 34 vehicles of the same make and model in the last 12 months. The manufacturer has replaced the first four failures and advised that we need to pay for the repair. This is a Rivian produced Amazon delivery vehicle. Online forums show this being reported by Amazon drivers throughout the country, so it is not an isolated incident. If this cable were to break during an accident, the occupant would no longer be restrained by
