What's wrong?
The fuel supply line quick connector on the 2019-2020 Bentley Bentayga is the fitting that joins the fuel line running from the tank to the high-pressure pump in the engine compartment. Its job is to keep gasoline sealed inside the line while the pump feeds the engine under pressure.
On affected Bentayga vehicles, high heat in the engine compartment can push the connector beyond its design temperature limit. That heat softens the connector material, and the softened fitting can lose its seal. When that happens, fuel can leak at the connection point in the engine compartment.
The warning sign is fuel odor near the engine compartment. If you smell gasoline around the front of the vehicle, treat it as a sign that the fuel line connector needs dealer inspection.
Who's affected?
The same fuel supply line quick connector is involved for each listed Bentayga model year.

What's the safety risk?
A fuel leak near the engine raises the fire risk if it reaches an ignition source. Fuel odor around the engine compartment is the warning sign. If you smell fuel, stop using the vehicle, keep it away from ignition sources, and call a Bentley dealer for instructions. Repair is free at any franchised Bentley dealer.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Bentley technician replaces the fuel line and quick connector in the engine compartment. Parts and labor are covered under the recall, so the owner does not pay for the repair. Out-of-pocket repairs already paid are handled through the existing warranty, not through a separate reimbursement program, because Bentley says all affected vehicles are still within the warranty period. Ask the service desk how warranty coverage applies if you have prior repair paperwork.
