9 recalls across 8 model years
The Bugatti Chiron has 9 recalls covering 2016 through 2023 model years, with the most serious being a rear tire cracking defect on the 2021 Pur Sport trim that can cause sudden air pressure loss while driving, raising the risk of losing control.
The 2020 model year has a rear left driveshaft that can fracture, sending pieces onto the road and creating a hazard for surrounding traffic. On 2017 through 2020 models, the electronic stability control system can remain in a reduced Sport mode after the vehicle is restarted if Handling Mode was previously selected, rather than returning to its full default setting. The 2017 and 2018 model years share a front seat recliner bracket that may not be properly welded, allowing the seatback to shift unexpectedly and alter the driver's position at the wheel. On certain 2018 vehicles, a heat shield inside the side airbag gas generator can be incorrectly installed, reducing airbag deployment performance in a side impact. A separate 2018 vehicle has a front frame support screw that may be loose, which can reduce structural protection in a crash.
Going back to the earliest production years, 2016 models have a seatbelt reminder chime that may not sound when the driver starts the vehicle without buckling up. A broader version of that same seatbelt chime issue covers 2016 through 2023 models, where the audible alert at startup can fail to activate when the belt is unfastened.
