Approximately every 8,000 miles the parking brake on the manual transmission, inline-4, fwd loosens and must be taken to the dealer to be tightened. Thus far, this has occurred twice. While parking on a hill this is a safety concern, especially since the clutch no longer holds the vehicle in place after 17,000 miles.
