MCLAREN MP4-12C Recalls

The McLaren MP4-12C has 2 recalls covering both the 2012 and 2013 model years, both involving the passenger-side front airbag inflator rupturing during deployment and sending metal fragments into the cabin, which can cause serious injury or death. The 2012 model year recall applies to all vehicles, where long-term humidity and temperature exposure degrades the airbag propellant and causes the inflator to deploy with excessive force. The 2013 model year recall is scoped to vehicles ever registered in high-humidity states and territories including Florida, Texas, California, Hawaii, and several others, where the same inflator failure risk applies. Both are Takata-type airbag issues tied to climate exposure over time.
