Synopsis
A320 flight crew reported ECAM HYD G RSVR LO LVL illuminated after landing with ECAM ENG 1 THR LEVER DISAGREE and no reverser deployed on the number one engine. The flight crew moved off the active runway and requested a tow to the gate.
Narrative
Landing conducted on XXL in ZZZ. On landing; ECAM ENG 1 THR LEVER DISAGREE; only engine #2 went into reverse thrust with slight pull to the right. Once slowed; we exited the runway on taxiway 1; when ECAM HYD G RSVR LO LVL illuminated. Stopped aircraft with alternate brakes at intersection of taxiway 1 and taxiway 2. Note; during transfer of braking; aircraft braking was sluggish and brake pedals had limited response. When the brakes finally engaged; anti skid protection activated. Since there was no steering; aircraft was directed towards median between taxiways. Aircraft stopped on the midline of the taxiway heading. ZZZ Ground indicated we had a large pool of fluid forming under the fuselage of the aircraft. ECAMs were completed and APU started. Flight Attendant briefings were completed. PA announcement made to the passengers. ZZZ Crash Fire Rescue (CFR) responded to ensure the safety of aircraft. Hazardous material spill cleanup responded to aircraft. Because of loss steering and normal brakes; aircraft was towed to gate. Passengers disembarked via jet way. ZZZ airport safety; CFR and HAZMAT debriefed crew. After initial briefing to Purser who relayed info to aft Flight Attendants; aft Flight Attendants indicated they smelled hydraulic fluid. I had to directly call them to discern what they really meant; understand current cabin status. Confusion could have led to unnecessary evacuation. Location of aircraft near ZZZ XXL and high speed taxiway during continued airport operations created difficulty for CFR; and HAZMAT response crews.
Second reporter narrative
We were cleared to land on Runway XXL in ZZZ. Approach and touchdown were normal. Upon rollout we had a left reverser unlocked ECAM message. We continued to decelerate and exit the runway at taxiway. While exiting the aircraft braked hard and the Captain (CA) said I do not have any more brakes or steering and they set the parking brake. I informed Ground Control that we had a steering issue and would need to remain in place while we figured out what was wrong. Ground told us to proceed as requested. We ran the ECAM which led us to shut off the hydraulic pump and the left engine. Other aircraft told us we had fluid dripping from the underside of the center's fuselage and a large puddle under the aircraft. We then coordinated with Company operations and Ground Control to get a tug to tow us into gate. Airport operations and the Crash Fire Rescue (CFR) escorted us to the gate. The tow in was uneventful. After passengers deplaned Company Maintenance came aboard. We briefed Maintenance and then took over the airplane. We continued on the remainder of our pairing without further incident.
