Electric fault?

Hi all, I’ve read some people have had similar issues so just wanted to share ours. We’ve got a 20 plate Zoe with 30k miles on it.

At seemingly random times, a warning will flash saying “STOP: electrical fault” or “STOP: check brakes”. Sometimes without any dash warning, the car knocks itself out of drive into neutral. This can happen at 20mph or 60mph, which is obviously quite scary.

We got this issue “fixed” when the car was under warranty, it’s not out of warranty and we’re still dealing with this. Any time we’ve had the MOT due we’ve mentioned it and always been told they “can’t find it”. Yesterday we took it to have the air con regassed (another thing we’ve had to fix multiple times due to apparent leaks) and the technician said he moved the car about 20feet and had to stop and start multiple times witnessing the issue.

Any ideas? Renault don’t seem to care that the car is failing on the motorway
