The rear drive units in my 2013 and 2015 Tesla Model S failed the day after I took delivery.Not-so-early Tesla Model S's had lots of drive unit failures, too.
I know there aren't that many trucks built yet, but I find it interesting that most serious failures so far seem to be only one vehicle reporting it. If it is a single failure of each type, then it sorta falls under the sh!t happens category, with something like a ~ 1/2000 chance (which is high, but not astronomical).
It would be interesting to see the internal report from Rivian. I'm curious, was it a motor manufacturing fault? A fault on Rivian's side? Something happened in shipping?
