What this recall means for you
Due to a software error, the rearview camera screen may show a blank image when the vehicle is put in reverse. Without a working camera view, the driver has less visibility of what is behind the vehicle, which increases the risk of a crash, such as striking a person or object while backing up.
The remedy is a free software update to the infotainment unit, performed by an authorized dealer. Owners were mailed notification letters on November 17, 2022. If you have questions, you can contact Bentley customer service at 1-800-877-6923. You can also check your VIN for open recalls to confirm whether your vehicle is affected.
