PARKING BRAKE
THE CAR'S EMERGENCY BRAKE WHILE FULLY ENGAGED WILL NOT STOP THE CAR FROM ROLLING DOWN A 5% GRADE DRIVEWAY. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME THESE HAVE COME BACK FOR THIS PROBLEM. HOWEVER THEY DON'T HAVE A PROTOCAL OR RECALL NOTICE SO THEY CAN'T FIX THE PROBLEM. IF THIS SUV WERE PARKED ON A HILL WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE APPLIED AND THE CAR WAS SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL BY A CHILD. THEIR COULD BE A GRAVE ACCIDENT THAT COULD RESULT IN FATALITIES TO PEDESTRIANS AND PEOPLE IN THE VEHICLE. BY THE DEALERSHIP REFUSING TO FIX THIS PROBLEM, I AM CONCERNED WITH THE SAFETY OF THE PEOPLE.
