    Bugatti recalls Chiron Pur Sport vehicles over rear-tire defect

    Recall announced

    Bugatti is recalling up to nine Chiron Pur Sport vehicles in the United States because rear tires may crack after about 4,000 km of use and could rapidly lose pressure. The source says the issue was identified through a company test car, not a customer vehicle.

    Company response

    • Remediation — Bugatti

      Bugatti’s solution for now is simply to replace each car’s rear rubber every 18 months, or 3,000 km or so

    Source excerpt

    • Bugatti is recalling up to nine examples of one its most expensive models in the U.S. because it has found the rear tires may begin to crack up after about 4,000 km (2,500 miles) of use.
    • Bugatti’s solution for now is simply to replace each car’s rear rubber every 18 months, or 3,000 km or so (1,875 miles).
    • That’s based not on a problem with any customer car, but instead one of the company’s well-used test cars.
