Parking Brake problem #1

When parking brake was applied, a load popping noise was heard. The left rear cable popped out of the parking brake equalizer since the part was rusted out. I am very concerned as I am well aware of the high mileage of this vehicle. It is still a popular car on the road today.

Parking Brake problem #2

Abs & park brake came on intermittently for 5 seconds after car in shop 9 of first 21 days owned finally it was fixed. The service dept would give me no information regarding problems, and tried to reduce likelihood of lemon law by not providing me with documentation. Also fake wood not secured on any interior placement of car.
