What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Bugatti is recalling certain 2021-2022 Chiron Pur Sport vehicles. After 2,500 miles of usage, the rear tires may develop cracks.

The risk

Cracks in the rear tires may result in rapid loss of tire pressure, which can lead to a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

As an interim repair, dealers will replace the rear tires on the affected vehicles every 1,875 miles or when tire age reaches 1.5 years. Once newly designed tires are available, the tires will be replaced again. Repairs will be performed free of charge. Owners with tires that have already reached 2,500 miles or 1.5 years should not drive their vehicle until the tires are replaced. Owner notification letters were mailed on December 30, 2021. Owners may contact Bugatti customer service at 1-703-826-7545. Bugatti's number for this recall is BUGCR025.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
