A brake is a mechanical device that inhibits motion by absorbing energy from a moving system. It is used for slowing or stopping a moving vehicle, wheel, axle, or to prevent its motion, most often accomplished by means of friction.
Hi All,
On occasions I get a message on the dash of my 5 LR saying something along the lines of 'Autonomous Emergency Braking Unavailable'. Anybody else get this?

Thank you to all who responded to my thread 'Dangerous unexpected braking!!' I contacted the dealer (Baylis Gloucester) who have today installed a software update. Hopefully the problem is resolved.
Hello
I have had my ZS EV since April. I have had a few occasions when the brakes would come on momentarily at low speed. Today however, I was traveling at 40 mph when the brakes came on unexpectedly causing great alarm to me and the car behind! I had noticed that the information center (the...

Why is this, I would be interested to know how this has been used, and if so does this affect obtainable range
Just had a warning come up on my dash to say that the KER’s level 3 isn’t working as it should and to use the pedal, has anyone else had this issue it’s been working fine for one whole week...will call MG tomorrow and get it booked in. The message doesn’t appear on level 1 or 2!!
