The front brake pipe from the caliper to the flexible brake hose is showing signs of a chafe condition. This has occurred on some Defenders that have been subject to an earlier recall (P053 - https://www.productsafety.gov.au/recall/jaguar-land-rover-australia-land-rover-defender-hub-bolts). This may cause brake fluid loss. Brake fluid loss will illuminate a red warning triangle on the instrument cluster instructing the driver to seek qualified assistance before continuing.

The loss of park brake is due to the brake shoes being impregnated with oil from the transfer box as a result of a loose flange nut on the output of the transfer box allowing oil to migrate onto the brake shoes.

A potential abrasion condition between the front left hand flexible brake hose and tyre. The front left hand tyre can contact the hose and cause abrasion to the outer lining material which could result in a brake fluid leak.
