What are the defects?
Due to an improper manufacturing process, the electrical power steering wiring harness may become trapped between the subframe and the subframe closing plate on right hand drive vehicles.
What are the hazards?
If the harness gets trapped, it may short circuit and cause loss of power assistance with a warning to the driver, and pose a fire hazard in limited circumstances. If this occurs while the vehicle is being driven, it may increase the risk of an accident, potentially injuring vehicle occupants and other road users.
What should consumers do?
Consumers should contact their nearest Bentley Dealer via https://www.bentleymotors.com/en/apps/dealer-locator.html/country/AU-Australia to arrange for their vehicle to be inspected and repaired, where required.
