The short answer
NHTSA received McLaren Automotive Incorporated’s report on Jul 23, 2021. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 19, 2026.
Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
Brake failure in one corner can cause the vehicle to pull to one side during braking, and increase the risk of a crash.
McLaren Automotive Incorporated (McLaren) is recalling certain 2020 570S, GT, 2019 600LT, and 2019-2020 720S vehicles.
The brake assembly banjo bolt may be missing the holes that supply brake fluid to the caliper, which would cause the brakes to fail on one corner of the vehicle.
