Summary

McLaren Automotive Incorporated is recalling 1,012 of its 2020-2023 McLaren GT vehicles because the hood may open unexpectedly while the car is in motion. This issue is caused by excessive tension in the hood latch's manual release cable, which can trigger the latch to release. To fix this problem, McLaren will replace the hood latch on all affected vehicles at no cost to the owner.

Risk

If the hood opens suddenly while you are driving, it can completely block your view of the road through the windshield, which significantly increases the risk of a crash.
