Automatic brake fault

[Terry]

Hi, after some guidance, when I first switch on I get a message on the display reading ‘Automatic brake fault’ Could anyone tell me the possible problem please.
Thanks in advance

brakes would be pads, discs, fluid, master cylinder, switch, sensor + things ive forgotten
Could be handbrake associated

Does a light come up on the dials too?
Didn't know the DS3 had brake warnings

If you have active city brake like my car, it could relate to that. The sensor for this is in the windscreen, it could be a fault there.

Best thing, back to dealership if you have a warranty still in place.

Active City brake- that sounds frightening

Had something similar on my Golf- hacking along at (cough) 70mpf, and the sensors decided to apply the brake if they thought I was too close to the next car....!!!
Think it was only in cruise, but very unnerving

Thanks for the replys. It’s only done 6000 miles and I bought it privately, so no warranty, might be worth switching it off if it could put the brakes on at the wrong time.

Ive not seen many moans about the DS3 active brake, just moaning bout mine on the Golf

Here’s fault that occurred in the vehicle with brakes I want to fix it but cannot do it. Upon this, I showed my myessaygeeks review to my mechanics and now he will fix it for me.

The faults are usual but the real programmer is, who minimizes the risk t almost zero that this is no more a problem and for this smart home is the best option right now where the problems can be minimized to loose the data for the long time.
