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.
When coming to a sudden stop and when consumer steps off the brakes vehicle will steer immediately to the right.
