Rivian recalls nearly every vehicle it has sold

I remember Ford had a similar issue with their Escape SUVs back in the late 90's or early 2000's. The wrench-monkeys at the factory had put some steering wheel nuts on upside down, and when they torqued them to spec, some would crack and eventually break. Probably not a good thing to happen when going 70 MPH. I only remember this because I had been looking for a new vehicle at the time and considered the Escape until I heard about that recall. Decided maybe Quality wasn't really Job 1 at Ford anymore...
