The 2013 McLaren MP4-12C Spider has 2 recalls, the most serious being a faulty airbag inflator that can explode and send sharp metal fragments into the cabin, posing a risk of serious injury or death to the driver or passengers.
The second recall affects vehicles originally sold or currently registered in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas: the windshield wiper motor can fail, leaving the driver without wipers in rain or other inclement weather and reducing visibility enough to raise the risk of a crash.
