- Filed Sep 20, 2026Failure Jul 29, 2026Bonita Springs, FLBody
There is a crack in the passenger side door hinge that causes the door to misalign. I fear the door will fall off and cause safety risks. My independent service center confirmed the crack. McLaren has acknowledged the problem and has redesigned the hinge, but refuses to correct the problem on existing models.
