Recall 24V661000

Latches/locks/linkages › Hood › Latch — Mclaren · reported 10 Sep 2024 · 1,012 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

McLaren Automotive Incorporated (McLaren) is recalling certain 2020-2023 McLaren GT vehicles. The manual release cable of the hood latch may have excessive tension that can cause the latch to open, resulting in the hood opening unexpectedly.

The risk

A hood that opens unexpectedly while driving can obstruct the driver's view, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

McLaren will replace the hood latch, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 11, 2024. Owners may contact McLaren customer service at 855-202-8815.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
