Rivian had to recall all of theirs for the same reason. Turns out a 3-ton car is hard to engineer.

I have a 2022 Rivian and I don't remember any recalls for brake rotors or wheels falling off. There was one about a year after they made the first R1T where they had forgotten to record the torque of a bolt for the upper control arm during assembly, but the recall just involved having the torque checked, they didn't have to replace anything. Is that the recall you're thinking of?

They told everyone who owned a rivian at that time to stop driving it immediately until the guy could come out and put the wheels back on. That is a recall.

I don't think that's true. I owned my Rivian at that time. There was a recall but I never received any instructions similar to that. They had everyone drive to the nearest service center to have the bolt torque checked, or you could book a mobile service appointment.

You can see the Oct 6 2022 recall information here, including what they instructed people to do: https://rivian.com/support/article/recall-information
