Ça ne veut pas dire ça. C'est plutôt "décevoir quelqu'un" et "laisser tomber"
"You had better get straight A's in school: don't let me down!"
"Tu ferais mieux d'avoir de bonnes notes à l'école : ne me déçois pas !"
"I'm counting on you, don't let me down!"
"Je compte sur toi, ne me laisse pas tomber !"
"She felt let down when no one came to her party."
"Elle a été déçue quand personne n'est venu à sa fête."
