NHTSA recall 23V152000
Air Bags · Bentley Motors, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Bentley motors, Inc. (Bentley) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Continental gtc vehicles. Due to a sharp edge on the air bag deflector bracket, the seat air bags may tear during deployment. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 214, "side impact protection," and 208, "occupant crash protection."
Why it matters: A torn air bag may not adequately protect an occupant in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix: Dealers will inspect the affected front seats and, if necessary, remove the sharp edge on the airbag deflector bracket rivet, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 17, 2023.
