What’s wrong with it?
In the event of a crash, if the rear seat belt buckle detaches, the seat occupant would have an increased risk of injury.
Bentley Motors, Inc.
(Bentley) is recalling certain 2012-2018 Bentley Mulsanne vehicles.
In the event of a crash, the rear seat belt anchor may detach from the vehicle.
As such, these vehicles fail to comply to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 210, “Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages.”
