Bentley recall: Power train
What is 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.
What could happen

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.
