Do you use Brake hold function?
There is hold button on the steering wheel to be able to hold the car when your feet is off the brake. Do you guys use it? What you don’t like about this function?

I use it all the time when driving from traffic light to traffic light.

I think this function sees a lot of use in metropolitan areas with lots of rush hour and stop-go traffic. Where I live, rush hour traffic means five cars ahead of you at a traffic light, and there is no stop-go traffic on the expressways or elsewhere. There has been an occasion or two where I have used Hold, but more often than not, by the time I remember to engage it, it's time to disengage and go..... I guess I am not destined to enjoy the pleasure of using the Hold feature

I'd like to use it but I park very frequently against a concrete wall in a garage. I'm afraid that when I park and inch closer to the wall the hold function will engage and I'll need to step on the accelerator and move too quickly.

I use mines frequently especially when I use the drive thru services. The auto emergency parking brake takes over to soon.

I think you are over-thinking this. I've never had this issue either.
