This morning on my way to work I was stopped in queue of cars on a slight incline with EPB on and in drive it unexpectedly auto released and nearly ran into the car in front?
I tried it later a few times on various inclines and it it does appear to release without touching the accelerator at all if the slope exceeds a certain angle.
Any suggestions? |
Yes it's happened to me too , it only takes a tiny touch of the throttle pedal to release it , hardly enough to raise the rpm will do it . You sit there holding your foot up off the pedal and your foot gradually goes down of course .
