Rivian, the Irvine, California-based electric vehicle company, is recalling nearly all the vehicles it has produced to tighten a loose fastener in the vehicles’ front suspension

. The recall involves 12,212 electric pickups, vans and SUVs, according to paperwork the company filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The Amazon-backed electric vehicle manufacturer sent messages to its customers on Friday to inform them of the recall, according to a statement from the company, which emphasized that it has not yet heard of any injuries as a result of the issue.

Rivian produces the R1T electric pickup truck, R1S SUV and electric delivery vans for Amazon, which is the company’s largest investor. This is the company’s third recall, according to NHTSA. The company recalled about 500 vehicles in August for an airbag issue and about 200 vehicles in May for an issue involving seat belt anchors. The current issue involves a nut on the vehicles’ front suspension that may not have been sufficiently tightened during manufacturing.
