Bumper Cover Repair With ADAS: Rivian

I-CAR · October 4, 2024 · Rivian

Summary

Rivian prohibits any bumper cover repairs, repainting, primers, sealers, or base coats within the designated radar transmission 'No-Repair Zone' on R1T and R1S models. Only clearcoat application is permitted in this zone; any other damage requires complete bumper cover replacement.

What to do on the job

Identify the radar transmission 'No-Repair Zone' using Rivian's measurements, and replace the bumper cover if any damage or paint repair beyond clearcoat is required within that zone.

How to use it

Use this document to justify a full bumper cover replacement on Rivian vehicles when damage, primer, sealer, or base coat is present within the radar transmission 'No-Repair Zone', as Rivian strictly prohibits repairs in this area to ensure proper ADAS radar function.
