Rivian bulletin FSAM-1760
Rivian filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Apr 17, 2026, received May 7, 2026, about the unknown or other — 1 document under this number: RSB-56-002-1. It names 4 model years (2025–2026). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.
What the bulletin says
Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communicationRivian is launching a technical service bulletin for some model year 2025-2026 R1T and R1S vehicles that were manufactured with exterior door handles that, under some conditions, could squeak when the handles present or retract. The ability to open the door and enter or exit the vehicle is not affected. Upon customer complaint of a squeaking exterior door handle, Rivian will upgrade a pin inside all 4 exterior door handles.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is Rivian FSAM-1760 a recall?
No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.
Is the FSAM-1760 repair free?
Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way.
Which vehicles does FSAM-1760 cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 4 model years: 2026 Rivian R1S, 2025 Rivian R1S, 2026 Rivian R1T, 2025 Rivian R1T. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
