Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.
0
Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

The defect: McLaren Automotive Incorporated (McLaren) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Senna vehicles. The engine harness may contact a metal link pipe heat shield, chafing the harness over time, potentially damaging the wires.
The risk: Damaged wires may cause a sudden reduction in engine power or an engine stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy: McLaren will notify owners, and dealers will reroute the engine harness, free of charge. The recall began October 18, 2019. Owners may contact McLaren's Client Services department at (855) 202-8815 or [email protected].

They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
