The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 4 vehicles this is a small campaign: 96% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2018 to 2020, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Bentley vehicles have been recalled over the air bags 2 times before this, most recently in February 2008 as 08V072000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 3 other recalls published here: 23V592000 (fuel system, gasoline), 20V321000 (fuel system, gasoline), 20V154000 (seat belts).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Bentley Motors, Inc. with NHTSA on February 17, 2020 as campaign 20V092000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
