3 recalls across 6 model years
The McLaren MP4-12C Spider has 3 recalls covering 2012-2014 model years, with the most serious being a Takata passenger-side airbag inflator defect on 2012-2013 vehicles where the inflator can rupture and send metal fragments into the cabin, causing serious injury or death.
The airbag inflator issue on 2012 models is specifically scoped to vehicles originally sold or registered in high-humidity states and territories, including California, Florida, Texas, Hawaii, and several others, as moisture accelerates the risk of rupture. The 2012-2013 model years are covered by a broader filing addressing the same inflator failure.
The third recall covers 2012-2014 Coupe and Spider models originally sold or registered in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas, where the wiper motor can fail and leave the driver without functioning wipers in rain, reducing visibility and raising the risk of a crash.
