2000–2001 Bentley Arnage recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
Vehicle description: passenger vehicles. Improperly manufactured fuel feed and return hoses were installed in some of these vehicles. The position of the crimp securing the rubber hose material to the steel quick release connection may have been improper. If the crimp is not properly position, fuel leakage could occur in the engine compartment.
💥 The risk
If an ignition source is present, this fuel leakage could result in a fire.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace all feed and return hoses. Owner notification began february 20, 2001. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact rolls-royce at 1-248-340-6464.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
