Bentley Bentayga luxury SUV recalled due to loose seats

A total of 88 Bentley Bentayga cars have been recalled in the US due to defects related to the dashboard and seats inside the car.

Bentley recently announced plans to recall the Bentayga super luxury SUV in the US market. The reason is that Bentley discovered that the Bentayga's dashboard and seats were loose.

The issue was discovered during a review of Bentayga vehicles in the US by Bentley. According to Bentley, the system used to store torque values ​​​​of the Bentayga was missing or had unreliable values. Through this, Bentley discovered that some screws were not tightened properly, affecting the Bentayga's seats and instrument cluster.

Over time, the instrument cluster and seats of the Bentley Bentayga will loosen, causing a rattling noise. In addition, loose parts can increase the risk of injury to the occupants of the Bentley Bentayga in the event of an accident.

To fix this problem, Bentley has decided to recall 88 Bentaygas in the US market to check the screw torque. If it is loose, the screw will be tightened. Of course, the inspection and repair will be completely free.

It is not yet clear whether the Bentley Bentayga cars imported to Vietnam are affected or not. At the recent VIMS 2016 exhibition, Bentley also officially introduced the super luxury SUV Bentayga to Vietnamese consumers. The Bentley Bentayga launched at VIMS 2016 was painted in glossy black.

In Vietnam, there are currently a total of 4 different Bentley Bentayga cars, divided equally between 2 colors: copper gold and glossy black. Of which, 1 black and copper gold car is an official import. The remaining 2 cars were brought to Vietnam through private import.

Currently, 2 Bentley Bentayga have found their owners in Vietnam and have white plates. Among them, the glossy black Bentley Bentayga with white plates in Saigon belongs to the family of "hot girl" Huyen Baby's husband. The genuine bronze-colored one belongs to a tycoon in Ninh Binh.

Dubbed the fastest and most powerful SUV in the world, the Bentley Bentayga uses a 6.0-liter, twin-turbocharged W12 engine, producing a maximum capacity of 600 horsepower and a maximum torque of 900 Nm. Power is transmitted to all four wheels through an 8-speed automatic transmission. Thanks to that, the Bentley Bentayga can accelerate from 0-96 km/h in 4 seconds before reaching a maximum speed of 301 km/h.

The exact price of the Bentley Bentayga when imported to Vietnam is currently unknown. Meanwhile, in the US market, the standard Bentley Bentayga has a starting price of 229,100 USD, equivalent to 5.1 billion VND. With this price, the Bentley Bentayga is the most expensive commercial SUV in the world.
