    Bentley Recalls Continental For Fire Potential, Horsepower Still "More Than Adequate"

    It looks like at least 13,420 VW Bentley Continental owners (or, more likely, Bentley Continental owners' "help") will soon be making an unscheduled pit stop at their local Flying B dealership. A recall has been issued due to the potential for road salt to corrode the fuel filter, resulting in leakage and the obvious potential for conflagration, Olde-English style. Affected vehicles include 2004-2008 Continental GT, GT Speed, Flying Spur, and GTC vehicles, so if you're a Manhattan real estate mogul or Alfred Taubman, keep an eye on your mailbox for a letter from Crewe.
