NHTSA recall 10V411000
Structure · Bentley Motors, Ltd.
Details
What's wrong: There is a potential for the "b" hood ornament's retracting mechanism to become corroded. This may lead to the "b" hood ornament not retracting as intended when a vehicle is involved in a crash.
Why it matters: If the hood ornament does not retract, it could increase the risk of injury to a pedestrian in the event of a crash between the vehicle and the pedestrian.
The fix: Dealers will replace the retractable "b" mechanism free of charge. The safety recall began on September 27, 2010.
