 Description of the problemI charged the leaf the night before and went downtown. It was winter in maine and around 10 degrees. After going into a store and coming out when i started the car and put it in d the brakes didn't work. I slammed the pedal down to the ground but it didn't seem to do much. I almost hit the parked car in front of me but i put the emergency brake down and luckily stopped. I turned the car on and off but the problem was still happening. The brakes made a weird clicking and electronic noise. I turned the car off for about 5 minutes to call aaa and when i turned it back on it worked. I've done some research and this has happened to other owners. There was a voluntary recall (p5327?) which was already done on the vehicle but this still happened. My leafspy app showed the dtc codes of c118a 0109 abs e-driven int brake system brc-124 and c1a61 0109 brake motor power supply br-46. I took it to the dealership and they said that power wasn't being supplied to the brakes. Dangerous! They did not really have a fix for it other then put in a $2300 part and then do more tests.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
