2018-21 Bentley Flying Spur: trim could keep accelerator pedal depressed

In July 2021, recall campaign RE21/23 (RC05) was issued for 2018-21 Bentley Flying Spur vehicles. Due to inconsistent fitment of the fuse box and the electrical harness, the A-post lower trim could protrude into the vehicle’s cabin, reducing clearance to the accelerator pedal. If the accelerator pedal was fully depressed whilst driving and unable to return to its resting position, the vehicle would continue to accelerate, even when the driver’s foot was removed from the accelerator pedal. This condition increased the risk of losing vehicle control and a collision, also increasing the risk of injury for vehicle occupants and other road users. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see REC-001669.
