The update will take approximately 3.5 hours and it will be performed free of charge.

Not displaying the rearview camera images increases the risk of a crash, according to a notice issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

The affected vehicles are Bentaygas manufactured between July 10, 2020, and August 31, 2022. A total of 3,134 examples of the Bentayga are involved in the recall, including 1,472 models from 2021 and 1,662 from 2022.

But this isn’t the first time Bentley will be recalling its best-selling model. Back in June 2020, the carmaker recalled more than 6,000 Bentayga SUVs globally over a leak in the fuel line quick connector, which in the presence of an ignition source, can increase the risk of a fire.
