Bentley is recalling two of its uber-luxurious Bentayga SUVs due to faulty software within its chassis-control module.
The fault is limited to two V8 models sold in 2021.
“Due to incorrect software parameters within the Chassis Control Module, there may be a delay in the intervention of the Electronic Stability Control (ESC),” the company says in its recall notice.
“This may result [in] a loss of vehicle control.”
- A total of two vehicles are affected

If you own one of the affected vehicles, Bentley is encouraging you to contact your local/preferred dealer in order to schedule a free fix.
