Owner report 11703959 · 2025-12-09 (December 9, 2025)
There’s sudden PDC fault arises, the vehicle’s all radar system is broken. Sometimes, the dashboard will be turned off during driving. WHEN PDC fault appears, the rear view camera when parking does not appear. Very dangerous while manipulating the car. This is a common issue in 2020 Bentley Flying Spur. I’ve done research with engineers. The PDC module’s water resistance ability is very deficient. Very easy to cause this trouble while driving in snow and rain.
