STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS
A loose frame support may reduce the vehicle's structural protection in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
5 safety recall campaigns, 1 carrying NHTSA's "park it" advisory.
1 campaign covering the 2018 BUGATTI CHIRON carries NHTSA’s “park it” advisory — the federal government telling owners to stop driving the vehicle until the remedy has been performed. Whether it was performed on any particular car is not something NHTSA publishes in a form anyone can query; a franchised dealer can run the VIN and print the record in a minute, and the repair is free.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
A loose frame support may reduce the vehicle's structural protection in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
The driver may be unaware that their seat belt is not fastened, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.
If the Handling Mode is activated, the ESC System goes into Sport mode. After an ignition cycle, the ESC does not default to the original default mode (ESC Normal Mode). After restarting the car, the Drive Mode remains in Handling mode affecting the ESC performance, increasing the risk of a crash.
If the air bag deployment performance is reduced, it can increase the risk of injury.
If the driver's seating position changes unexpectedly, it could increase the risk of a crash.
Two 2018 BUGATTI CHIRONs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
