When the emergency/ parking brake is on the car will still roll. Very dangerous for anyone near it . Cannot park on any hill and must always park on flat surfaces or the Jeep will roll down the hill. This is how it has been an ongoing problem since I got the Jeep into 2005. Almost ran over one of my kids the other day because of this.
