Handwriting from factory on side of my R1T

[LaunchGreen]

Noticed the strangest thing on the side of my truck today. In the right light, you can see that someone at Rivian wrote on the side of my truck prior to delivery. It says “Door Jam Dented” with an arrow.

Upon close inspection I can see small rub scratches from them trying to get it off. Who the hell writes on a vehicle? I tried to wipe it off with a wet microfiber but that didn’t work - anyone have any tips - looks like it’s in clear coat?

Door jam looks fine to me. I suspected that I got a truck that was rejected initially and fixed - kinda glad it was the door jam honestly.

I'd leave it. It's kind of cool. Like a penny with a three-eyed Lincoln.

Someone forgot to remove it before it went into the spray booth. That's probably under all of the paint.

I agree - have Rivian deal with that.

It's insane that Rivian let that through QC. Unacceptable.

The QC department, if there is one, is headed by Mr. Magoo.

Oh man, I hope you're wrong...

I'm sure it's not under the clear. Nobody is in the body shop, it's all robots. This is most likely from QC with a marker that was left on for a while. 2000 grit sand paper, some polish, it will go away

No dent and I compared the door jams extensively. Even used my kids protractor at one point. Don't worry, my wife thinks I'm totally sane.

Sounds like a keeper.
