    Bentley Recall

    Wow, just read about a Bentley recall - 820 car world wide (620 cars in the United States and Canada).

    Can you believe it? Bentley has a recall?!

    Say it ain`t so...

    Oh, just finished the article...

    The recall is over fears that its famous "Winged B" hood ornament could injure people in an accident because it might not properly retract.

    A Bentley dealer noticed the spring mechanism under the ornament has a tendency to corrode and might not always function properly.

    The fear is that if the hood ornament does not retract, it could increase the risk of injury to a pedestrian in the event of a crash.

    Honestly, if one is being hit by a 5000+ pound Bentley, it isn`t gonna be the winged B that is gonna seriously injure/kill them.
