Bentley Motors, Inc. "Bentley" is recalling certain 2017-2018 Continental Supersports vehicles. The Power Assisted Steering "PAS" cooler pipe may be the incorrect size, allowing the cooler hose to detach and leak power steering fluid.
A power steering fluid leak may cause a loss of vehicle control, or a hazard to following traffic, increasing the risk of a crash. In addition, the fluid leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.
Bentley will notify the owners, and dealers will replace the PAS cooler pipe, free of charge. The recall began January 7, 2020. Owners may contact Bentley customer service at 1-800-777-6923. Bentley's number for this recall is RE19/27.
