The 2019 McLaren 720S has two recalls, the more serious being a braking defect where a bolt in the brake assembly may be missing the internal holes that deliver fluid to the caliper, causing one corner of the car to lose braking force and pulling the vehicle sideways during a stop.
The second recall involves a foam pad beneath the fuel tank that can trap moisture and corrode the tank from underneath, leading to a fuel leak that raises the risk of fire near any ignition source.
