When I first bought the car the e brake would automatically engage when I’d put the car in park. Now I park on obvious hills and it does not engage. Is there a way to make it start engaging again?

 

I believe you can turn on and off the "automatic parking brake" feature by pulling the lever (as if you're engaging the brake manually) but hold for about 2 second until a beep is heard. Same action is used to toggle the "auto brake" setting.

 

What "lever" are you talking about? The only way I know is the button on the console to turn it on/off.

 

Thank you! I will try this today

 

 

My fault calling that a lever because I thought one's pulling/lifting it instead of depressing it as in the case of normal buttons.

 

I also would call it a lever (or toggle) as it gets pulled as well as pushed.

 

Read/see page 22 of your owners's manual quick guide for full instructions regards "Parking Brake"

 

I noticed that since the service I did last week the auto parking break function is deactivated, like usually when I shift to "P" the car will automatically activate the parking break, but now I need to manually press the parking. Anyone know how to activate that function again? Thanks

 

See post #8?

 

thanks! I just figured out
