Bugatti recall: Seats
What is wrong
Bugatti is recalling certain 2017-2018 Chiron vehicles. The front seat recliner brackets may not be welded properly, which can cause the back of the seat to move unexpectedly, affecting the driver's seating position.
What could happen
If the driver's seating position changes unexpectedly, it could increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Bugatti will notify owners, and service centers will inspect the welds on the recliner brackets for both seats, replacing the seat assembly, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on December 7, 2017. Owners may contact Bugatti customer service at 1-805-557-1050.
