Bentley Continental GTC: Sharp edges on the seat frame

29/07/2023

Bentley is recalling 3,901 Continental GTCs built between 2018 and 2020 to workshops worldwide. The reason for the recall are sharp edges on the seat frame. These can cause the airbag to tear during an airbag deployment of the seat airbag.

In the workshop, the affected front seats are checked and, if necessary, the sharp edge on the rivet of the airbag deflector bracket is removed. The KBA monitors the measure under the reference number “012617” and the internal manufacturer code is “RE23/03 (RC68)“.
