| File date | 31/07/20 |
| Component | SERVICE BRAKES |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | During conditions of low 12v battery charge, the vehicle will occasionally start, go into a drive mode ("r" or "d") but the brakes will not operate. I stress that this only happens when the 12v battery has low charge, but not too low that the vehicle will refuse to start. I am not the only person to report this.
