For all of you that drive around in top of the hyper cars

WASHINGTON -- Bugatti makes some of the world's most exclusive cars, yet even owners of the $2.99 million Chiron hypercar aren't immune from the nuisance of an occasional recall.
Bugatti recently informed U.S. auto safety regulators that it is recalling some of its Chiron models because of faulty welds in the front seat recliner brackets.
But the Volkswagen-owned brand does what it can to soften the inconvenience.
In addition to the usual letters required by law, its "Flying Doctor" concierge technicians have followed up with personal phone calls to the owners. They will then retrieve the affected Chirons and transport them in an enclosed truck to one of 12 Bugatti dealers in the U.S. for inspections.
If an improper weld is found, Bugatti will replace the entire seating assembly, Bugatti said in its recall notice
For real guys, take your cars in to get serviced, or at least send the help to do it.
Thanks you saved my ass
Damn I’ll have to return mine :/
good thing i've got a Veyron I can drive in the meantime
*incredibly clever joke about being rich and owning a bugatti*
*being a buzzkill loser*
Eh it's cool, I got a Zonda I can drive in the meantime.
its a shame that cubemanv2 isnt around to hear this news, im afraid he might have another acquaintance die in a street racing incident
Pff losers, should had bought a diesel VW instead!
(he said as he prays his engine head doesn't cracks)
Recalling a fuck-expensive hypercar sounds like a huge pain in the ass
headache for those 20 owners
Less of a headache than you might expect - those supercars typically require factory servicing for even basic maintenance. A trip back to the factory wouldn't be out of the ordinary at all, the logistics would be worked out already
Well they only made 500 of them so shouldn't be that big of a deal
unlike these others jokers i actually have one so thanks for the heads up
More importantly, he could have his google glass taken away
sigh, gonna have to ride to the Golf Club in the Phantom Drophead again
Oh dear, how embarrassing!
Nope, it's definitely the case for all.
You can't access the engine yourself, only technicians have access when you bring it in.
not strictly true.

its just something your average garage wrencher isn't going to be experienced enough to do
They are very much the macbook pro of cars
Thats it, ive had it with these. Im getting a refund on all of them...
ya except I doubt VW are nazis about replacement parts and technical documentation, in fact they probably follow the ferrari model of providing everything at a huge markup
