BACK OVER PREVENTION:DISPLAY FUNCTION
- The defect
- Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, Ltd. (Rolls-Royce) is recalling certain 2019-2022 Rolls-Royce Phantom vehicles. The Central Information Display may not raise to the correct position, resulting in a rearview camera image that is partially blocked from view.
- What it can cause
- A partially blocked rearview camera image reduces the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will update the software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 28, 2021. Owners may contact Rolls Royce customer service at 1-877-877-3735.
- NHTSA's note
- 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.
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.
| Vehicle | Model years | Safety record |
|---|---|---|
| Rolls-Royce Phantom | 2019 to 2022 | Not published here |
How this campaign compares
At 442 vehicles this is a small campaign: 51% of the 15,430 vehicle recalls with a published size filed from 1995 up to this one are as large or larger. The middle campaign among them covers 485. It covers model years 2019 to 2022, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Rolls-Royce vehicles have been recalled over the back over prevention once before this, most recently in September 2019 as 19V684000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 21V554000 (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 BMW of North America, LLC with NHTSA on November 3, 2021 as campaign 21V855000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
