MCLAREN is recalling 160 cars over growing fears the windows could fly off as they're being driven at high speed.
Owners of the McLaren 765LT supercar have been warned not to roll the windows down for risk of them flying away.
McLaren has also urged drivers not to use the car on racetracks and, if the windows are in use, to limit driving speed to under 96 mph.
The issue was flagged when the carmaker discovered the window panel could detach from the vehicle, which would put drivers at a higher risk of crashing.
At a normal speed the window is very unlikely to break off, but with a motor that can get up to 205 miles per hour, there is a chance.
At least 163 of the 2021 model year 765LT Coupes are being recalled leading to a fair few disgruntled petrol heads.

Concern about the window was raised after multiple complaints were filed about a rattling noise coming from the window of the high-performance car.
Even after multiple test drives, the team at McLaren team couldn't figure out what the complaints were referring to as they never heard a rattling when driving.
However it was revealed that these test drives were all done with the car windows up.
Only when the team was made aware that some racetracks require the car windows down for safety reasons, could they replicate the conditions in which the obscure noise was heard.

Quickly they rolled out a recall document.
read: "The polycarbonate panel design is only on the McLaren 765LT coupe, and is not present on other McLaren models."
It also described why the issue had come about, stating: "The rear cabin window is made from a polycarbonate panel that is attached to
a support frame using adhesive.
"The polycarbonate panel may de-bond, and, in certain circumstances, may detach from the support frame."
With all the faulty vehicles, the carmaker plans on adding small clasps to each affected window.
They have also offered a short-term fix in the form of adhesive glue for owners who can't wait for the fastenings.
The motor was part of McLaren's "Longtail" series which focused on lighter models, generating high speed, and a a streamlined finish.
Manufactures didn't realise they had also implemented a detachable window.
Coupes equipped with the factory-fitted roof scoop and McLaren 765LT Spider models have been marked as safe.
