2026 Bentley Continental GT & 2026 Bentley Continental GT Cabrio recall: powertrain & transmission
⚠️ What's wrong
Bentley Motors, Inc. (Bentley) is recalling certain 2026 Continental GT and Continental GTC vehicles. The front axles may have been assembled with an incorrect shorter driveshaft, which can cause the hub securing nut to loosen over time.
💥 The risk
A loose hub securing nut can cause vibration and a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect and replace the front axle driveshaft as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed June 8, 2026. Owners may contact Bentley customer service at 1-800-777-6923. Bentley's number for this recall is RE26/14. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall will be searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning June 8, 2026.
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.)
