Reason for the recall:
Excessive cable tension can result in unexpected latch opening. This can lead the bonnet to open while the car is in motion and obstruct the driver’s view. This increases the risk of accidents.
The McLaren GT vehicles affected by this recall were manufactured between 9 August 2019 and 6 June 2023.

This notification is purely informative for the vehicle type you have selected. As these deficiencies often relate to specific components (engine type, bodywork, equipment), the recall may not apply to all vehicles of this type. For more detailed information on possible recalls for your vehicle, please get in touch with an authorised workshop (see below at "What the owner should do?").
Please note that the recall may not apply to all vehicles produced in a given period. If you think your car might be affected, you should immediately contact a McLaren dealer or workshop officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details. You can use our sample request text. After reporting the vehicle's VIN code, you will find out if the defect is present on your car, or if it has already been resolved by the previous owner if the car was purchased second-hand.
If you wish to know more about the eventual problems of a specific car (e.g. real mileage, potential traffic accident damages, odometer rollback, repairs, etc.), in that case, we suggest going to this page.
