Concern

Bentley Bentayga Hybrid – Software Update For HV Battery Management Controller (RE25/46 RD74)

Defect, as DVSA words it

For certain vehicles a defect may be present in the cell modules of the 48Ah High Voltage Battery which could result in overheating during charging. Overheating of the battery cell modules during charging (or shortly afterwards) may lead to a thermal event.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Installation of new software into the Battery Management controller (BMC) to detect potential issues with the performance of the battery modules.

What changed since we first read it

Nothing yet. The wording has been the same on every read since 4 September 2026. The file is read again every day; if DVSA rewrites the defect, remedy or concern, the old and new text will appear here with both dates.

The same recall in other registers

No match found in the American, Canadian or European registers by manufacturer reference. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
