Hello All,
I've had this problem since I got my car and I'm trying to see if anyone else has this problem.
On my car, I have to pull the hand brake all the way up as hard as I can in order to get it to "stay."
If I only pull it up partially, any bumping of the brake lever (like when I try to get my fat butt in the car) will cause the brake lever to slip all the way down. I usually leave the car in gear so it doesn't go far. But if I were to leave the car in neutral, it would roll.
That's my concern, that the car could roll into something valuable like a kid in the driveway.
I showed this to my dealer when I first got the car and they blew me off because it was working "in spec." I also tried reporting this on the website, but they deferred to the dealer.
So I'm trying to see if this is a problem with Mustangs in general, or my specific car.
So far, my experience with this Mustang has been less than satisfying, I'm sorry to say.
Thanks,
-tomas
