- The position sensor of the parking brake actuator is at the wrong angle, causing the stopping pin to be incorrectly placed in the ‘P lock’ position and resulting in the parking brake not properly engaging when the P button is pressed on the transmission selector, when the engine is switched off, when the driver’s safety-belt is released or when the driver door is opened. This increases the risk of accidents and injuries, although the Assisted Parking Brake (APB) remains functional and allows the vehicle to be immobilised.

What is this? Some Renault cars may not lock the parking brake fully when you shift to P, turn off the engine, unbuckle the seat belt, or open the driver’s door.
What's happening? The parking brake’s sensor is bent, so the brake pin does not catch the lock. The car can still roll unless the Assisted Parking Brake is used.
Does this affect me? If you own or drive a Renault Scenic, Megane, Master IV, Rafale, Espace VI, Austral, Symbioz, Duster, or Captur II in France, Bulgaria, Ireland, or Portugal, your car may have this problem.
What should I do? Take your car to a Renault dealer for a free check and repair. Ask your dealer or a mechanic if you are unsure.
