Yep also heard about it happening to other more modern non-electric cars. Electrical failure and the car just died. If you have an electric park brake there is also no way for a driver to bring it to a stop. He can only drift until the car stops. God help you if you are on a hill.

The regular brakes are still hydraulic, the pedal will always work. Or did you mean that there's no way to KEEP the car stopped without someone standing on the pedal all the time? That's true, but you can always gently rest the car against the curb or road barriers or something.
- rapsey 5y agoNope it was all completely dead.
- Toutouxc 5y agoHydraulic car brakes can't be "completely dead". You step on a pedal, pedal pushes piston against hydraulic fluid, this increases pressure in the hydraulic fluid, fluid pushes a piston inside the brake caliper, piston pushes brake pads against rotor. No electricity involved.
