Watch Bentley

An official EU Safety Gate notice concerns Bentley - Accumulator Valve Body O Ring Seal. The component was incorrectly made from Nitrile material instead of Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer [M-class] rubber (EPDM). This has resulted in the material hardening and shrinking. This is leading to hydraulic brake fluid leakage, resulting in decreased braking efficiency and increased risk of road accidents. Published 2019-06-21.

What to do now

The source does not provide specific consumer instructions. Follow the official EU Safety Gate notice for next steps.
