Please check the electronic parking system refers to a fault in the braking system, which is arguably the most critical part of the entire vehicle. Once the braking system malfunctions, it may pose serious hazards to the driver and passengers. It is advisable to promptly visit a repair shop for maintenance. Below are common causes of braking system failures: Poor braking performance: When braking during vehicle operation, the deceleration is insufficient, and the braking distance is extended. This is usually caused by leakage in the wheel or master cylinder, insufficient oil pressure, brake malfunctions, or air entering the brake lines. The reasons for poor braking performance in a hydraulic braking system can generally be diagnosed based on the brake pedal travel, the soft or hard sensation when pressing the brake pedal, and the stability after pressing the pedal. Sudden brake failure: Severe leakage in the master or wheel cylinder, damaged piston seals in the master or wheel cylinder, or excessive air in the brake fluid lines. In the event of brake failure, it is essential to stop the vehicle immediately for inspection. First, check if there is a shortage of brake fluid in the reservoir, then inspect the master cylinder, wheel cylinders, and brake lines for any brake fluid leaks.
