What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (fuel tank corrosion) that poses a significant risk of fire, which aligns with the rubric criteria for a Severe (4) rating.

Plain-English summary

McLaren Automotive Incorporated is recalling certain 2016-2020 720S, 2019 Senna, 2020 GT, and 2017-2019 570GT vehicles. The recall involves 2,763 vehicles in total.

The Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) foam pad located underneath the fuel tank may retain moisture. This moisture can cause the fuel tank to corrode, potentially leading to a fuel leak. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.

McLaren will notify owners, and dealers will remove the NVH foam pad from the vehicle and inspect the fuel tank. If the fuel tank is found to have corrosion, it will be replaced. Repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began June 17, 2020. Owners may contact McLaren's Client Services department at 855-202-8815, Monday to Friday between 9am and 6pm EST, or via email at [email protected].
