Bentley Bentayga Recall 23V386: Second-Row Seats May Not Lock, Risking Injury in a Crash

NHTSA campaign 23V386, reported May 31, 2023, 1,008 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Certain Bentley Bentayga vehicles from model years 2022 and 2023 may have second-row seats that were installed incorrectly and are not locked onto all of their seat rails. The seat rails are the tracks that hold the seat in place.

If a seat rail is not locked, the seat can move during a crash, which increases the risk of injury to occupants. Bentley will check and reset the second-row seat rail positions to make sure they engage properly. The repair is free of charge at an authorized Bentley dealer. Owners who received a notification letter mailed on July 11, 2023 can contact Bentley customer service at 1-800-777-6923. This recall expands a previous Bentley recall, so check your vehicle's VIN for any open recalls.
