Bentley bulletin 2064648/6

What it saysACC Unavailable-Traffic Assist Failure-Safeguard Failure-Radar Malfunction Warning DIP - Numerous DTC's within 0013. NHTSA’s full summary ↓

Bentley filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Oct 9, 2025, received Oct 21, 2025, about the forward collision avoidance. It names 21 model years (2018–2026). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

What owners reported

Source: NHTSA complaint database

Owners of the 17 model years this bulletin names have filed 8 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 7 of them name Electrical System, Back Over Prevention, Forward Collision Avoidance — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.

There’s sudden PDC fault arises, the vehicle’s all radar system is broken. Sometimes, the dashboard will be turned off during driving. WHEN PDC fault appears, the rear view camera when parking does not appear. Very dangerous while manipulating the car. This is a common issue in 2020 Bentley Flying Spur. I’ve done research with engineers.

Thus cause the front doors keyless entry/unlock and lock the car through door handles malfunction. This is a very common issue you can searched on internet that many 2020 Flying Spur are having this problem.

A complaint is one owner’s account, not a defect finding, and a bulletin is not a recall. Nothing here says this bulletin was issued because of these complaints, or that the repair it describes fixed them. Complaint files on this site begin in 2015.
