The problem

Bentley Motors, Inc. (Bentley) is recalling certain 2021-2022 Bentayga vehicles. Due to a software error, the rearview camera image may be blank when the car is placed in reverse.

The risk

A rearview camera screen that displays a blank image reduces the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Dealers will update the infotainment unit software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 17, 2022. Owners may contact Bentley customer service at 1-800-877-6923. Bentley's number for this recall is RE22/29 (RC54).
