  • Freezing touchscreens, navigation errors, and Bluetooth malfunctions.

  • Reported across newer Bentley models with advanced tech packages.

Bentley Models Frequently Reported

Continental GT - Transmission, suspension, electrical failures

Bentayga - Suspension, AC, infotainment glitches

Flying Spur - Transmission, electrical, engine stalling

Mulsanne - Electrical malfunctions, infotainment issues

 

Why These Qualify as Lemon Issues

Repetition matters: Lemon law applies when the same defect persists after multiple repair attempts.

Safety concerns: Transmission failures, suspension defects, and engine stalls are considered serious risks.

Warranty coverage: Issues occurring under warranty and remaining unresolved strengthen lemon law claims.

 

 

Takeaway

Even ultra-luxury brands like Bentley are not immune to defects. If your Bentley experiences persistent, unrepairable issues—especially in transmission, suspension, electrical systems, or infotainment—it may qualify as a lemon. Documenting repair attempts and service delays is critical for pursuing compensation or a buyback under lemon law protections.
