Looks like the poll is ahead by faults... but ONLY 123 votes out of 3086 members 
Obviously not that many care then

Hi All
Wel just clicked had no problems which probably means tomorrow will be the first day of issue.
My car has just come out of a service and I have noticed the EPB is a little more"keen" than it was before.
No doubt it was looked at during the service.

Excellent, 5 more votes 
No point doing this unless there is a good % of members vote either no problems or select one of the issues listed. Either way, whatever the result, it shows solidarity and that the forum is actually read by its many members wherever they are in the world.
We all have the same EPB

This is what we intend to find out... keep the votes coming.

After being stripped & cleaned a few thousand miles ago, mines started squealing [intermittently] again!!
Another word with my dealer on Monday!!!

Mine has never been what you would call well and truly offroad, ie, fully immersed up to the axles or wading depth in mud / water, yet at only 1 yr old and 10,000miles I was getting an incomplete release of park brake causing a dreadful squeaking when setting off initially every time it was supposed to be released. Dealer said they stripped and cleaned at first service, but it still does it now and again and it's coming up to 2nd service soon. Although it has not seriously malfunctioned yet, I still think it is unacceptable to need this attention under the conditions mine has been used in.

Had screamers, locked several times - but going through the process of putting it into Maintenance Mode (Friend LR Technician ) cleared it most of time. When I took it in to Stratstones in Cheltenham, they fitted some mods and since then all's been OK 
They even seem to have cleared up the squeaking when pulling away after applying the hand brake for parking, stopping - well for anything!

No problems with mine after 6 months and 6000 miles...
But, it was not used off road, yet

Mine's been dunked and dragged through the mud a good few times without issue - lukcy I guess.  A goodly splash of Fanta Lemon around the EPB lever gunged it up good and proper though 
But to be fair, I hardly EVER use the EPB as mine's an auto

 I've had the first error of any type in 27,000 miles. Yesterday I got a EPB error but switching off cleared it. Fingers crossed - no more . Can I change my vote?
