Bentley has recalled its five-seat 2020-2022 Bentayga SUV to fix a problem with the rear seat runners.
“Due to improper assembly during production, the rear seat runners may not be correctly aligned/locked to the seat frame rails. As a result the seats may not lock in place and may move inadvertently,” the company says in its recall.
“In the event of an accident or hard braking if the rear seats move, it could increase the risk of injury or death to vehicle occupants.”
- A total of 128 vehicles are included in the recall
- A VIN list of affected vehicles is attached here
- The original recall notice is attached here
Bentley will contact owners of the affected vehicles and advise them to organise a free fix with their nearest dealer.
