Problem Bentley Motors, Inc. (Bentley) is recalling certain 2020 Continental GT vehicles equipped with a factory-installed sunroof. The sunroof may not be properly bonded to the vehicle body, possibly resulting in wind noise, water leaks, and in some cases, the complete separation of the sunroof from the vehicle. Risk If the sunroof panel separates from the vehicle while it is being driven, it may increase the risk of an injury or crash. Fix Bentley will notify owners, and dealers will remove the old sunroof glass and fit a new sunroof glass assembly to the vehicle using the approved bonding products and procedure, free of charge. The recall began June 22, 2020. Owners may contact Bentley customer service at 1-800-777-6923. Bentley's number for this recall is RE 20/15 (RB57).

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. RE 20/15 (RB57) is the number Bentley assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 20V309000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Check one specific vehicle

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.
