What the bulletin says

Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communication

EPAS harness over check | Continental GT | 26MY (SC26/01). Technical background: Bentley has been informed by one of its suppliers that an electro-mechanical power steering (ePAS) harness has been incorrectly routed on a Left-Hand Drive (LHD) front axle assembly. The front axle assembly in question has been routed as per Right-Hand Drive (RHD) specification. As per the supplier's recommendation, and to avoid any future customer complaints this may cause, it has been decided that the front axle in question must be reworked to re-route the harness to the correct Left- Hand Drive (LHD) specification.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Bentley ED80 a recall?

No. A service campaign is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the ED80 repair free?

A service campaign is usually paid by the manufacturer on the vehicles it names, within the terms and time limit the document sets; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.

Which vehicles does ED80 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 1 model year: 2026 Bentley Continental. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
