TomasCro · 10-31-2010, 09:38 AM

So i drove to the nice lake having a nice day, walk up to my car, ignition on, parking brake button pressed once nothing happen.. I pressed second time error come up on my screen that the brake failed i was wtf.... Second thought how the hell will i move?!? Was in the middlle of nowhere my girl started to panic.. Anyhow i found how to manualy release the brake but was so pissed.. I have only 6500 km on it and pay 100,000 euros for this to happend.

. Funny thing i always wonderd since i bought the car what if this button fails some day or it turns brake on in driving etc... Car is under warranty so i hope they will fix this for free..anyone else had this expirience?
