What this means for you

Plain-English summary

McLaren Automotive Incorporated is recalling certain 2020 570S, GT, 2019 600LT, and 2019-2020 720S vehicles. The recall involves 19 vehicles in total.

The brake assembly banjo bolt may be missing the holes that supply brake fluid to the caliper. This defect would cause the brakes to fail on one corner of the vehicle. Brake failure in one corner can cause the vehicle to pull to one side during braking, and increase the risk of a crash.

Dealers will inspect and replace the banjo bolt, as necessary, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed September 1, 2021. Owners may contact McLaren customer service at 1-646-429-8916 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
