As the industry continues to ask, are pre- and post-repair scans necessary, Rivian provides their answer.
Per the Rivian Pre And Post Scan Requirements position statement:
"Damage, loss of functionality, or disconnection of control modules, sensors, cameras, radar components, high and low voltage components, and other critical electronic devices may not be evident following a collision event... To detect these errors and make sure that vehicle systems are working as intended, a pre-repair and post-repair scan of the vehicle using Rivian factory diagnostic equipment is required."
Rivian also states: "Post-repair scanning makes sure that all replaced components are operational and within factory specifications."
You can view additional Rivian position statements on the RTS website.
