Chery Ant new energy vehicle brake failure official has not given a cause explanation. The following is an introduction to new energy vehicles: Hybrid vehicles: Equipped with batteries that can conveniently recover kinetic energy during downhill driving. In urban areas, the internal combustion engine can be turned off, and the vehicle can be driven solely by the battery, achieving "zero" emissions. Pure electric vehicles: The technology is relatively simple and mature, and can be charged wherever there is a power supply. Fuel cell vehicles: Zero or near-zero emissions, reducing water pollution caused by oil leaks, lowering greenhouse gas emissions, and operating smoothly with no noise.
As an Ant owner, I have personally experienced this. In early last year, Chery issued an official notice acknowledging that some 2022 models had brake failure issues due to a bug in the brake control software causing delayed response. The company immediately initiated a recall program, allowing affected owners to visit 4S stores for a free software upgrade, which took no more than an hour. I specifically went to my local store, where the technician found only a minor fault, and everything returned to normal after the upgrade. I recommend acting as soon as you receive the SMS or email notification—don’t delay. Safety comes first; these small issues with electric vehicles need prompt attention to prevent major accidents. Also, always pay attention to brake feel while driving, and if anything feels off, pull over immediately for inspection.
