1999 BENTLEY ARNAGE
This model year
What the record shows
The 1999 Bentley Arnage is a midsize car, and the 2nd model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 1998 to 2009.
The EPA rated one configuration: a single 4.4-litre eight-cylinder engine, rear-wheel drive only, a single transmission, Automatic 5-spd and running on premium gasoline.
Combined fuel economy is 13 mpg.
The federal record holds 8 service bulletins for it.
Counts are reports, not rates. A complaint is something an owner chose to file; it is unverified and unadjusted for how many of these cars were sold, so the useful comparison is against other model years of the same car. Recalls and investigations carry more weight because a manufacturer or regulator acted on them.
Reading this report
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
