Details

What's wrong: Bentley motors, Inc. (Bentley) is recalling certain 2021 Bentayga vehicles. The lock nut on the trailing arm of the rear axle may break due to stress corrosion.

Why it matters: A broken lock nut may misalign the rear axle, causing a loss of control and increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Bentley will notify owners, and dealers will replace the lock nuts, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed on June 16, 2021.
