- Published by: NHTSA \(United States\)
- Campaign number: 15V836000
- Manufacturer: McLaren Automotive Incorporated

## What is wrong

McLaren Automotive Incorporated \(McLaren\) is recalling certain model year 2014\-2015 P1 hybrid vehicles manufactured March 1, 2013, to October 31, 2015.  The affected vehicles have a secondary hood latch that may not properly re\-engage.  As a result, if the primary latch is released inadvertently, the hood may open while the vehicle is moving.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard \(FMVSS\) number 113, "Hood Latch System."


## What can happen

If the hood opens while driving it may increase the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

McLaren will notify owners, and dealers will replace the hood latch with a newly\-designed latch, free of charge.  The recall began on January 18, 2016.  Owners may contact McLaren customer service at 1\-646\-429\-8916.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
