Ebrake engages on its own when starting up the vehicle. You are unable to turn the ebrake off without restarting the car. The repair shop stated it is a problem with the computer module. A quick search of the internet shows that this is a common issue with this year's make and model. Luckily, the ebrake has not engaged itself yet while driving the vehicle.
I buy this car 2 years ago and 3 months later is starting having problem with rear passenger brakes I took the car to the mechanic and he change disc and brakes pads. A couple months later is starting having the same problem in the same area but this time is was smell burn coming through the wheel I'm stop the car to check was is going on when I check the brakes it was very very hot. I take the car to the mechanic and he told me the epb is bad he changed everything disc, brakes pads,caliper and epb motor. He said try to don't used the epb too much or I'm going to see you again with same problem ??. . . So I'm stop to use the epb for long time. One day I put my car in the carwash one guy hit the epb when he's done with the car im get inside I turn on the car and the brake warning light is starting flashing I say * not again and yes epb get stock. This is make me crazy the epb need to be fix from the dealer please make this common problem a recalls to getting fix for those people got the same issue.
