What owners wrote
Vehicle rolled down the driveway while parked, with emergency parking brake fully engaged, causing vehicle to crash into a parked vehicle. Dealer was notified. Provide any further details on this matter.
The foot operated parking brake broke under normal wear and tear. I had estimates that were well over $300 to fix, and have not yet had work done. I only park on level roads and hope transmission will hold in park. I feel this must be a defective part.
