Hand Brake

[metalhead79]

I don't like that mine wiggles when it's all the way down. It feels cheap, like it's about to fall off.

It sits too high, also.

They should follow suit with a push button e-brake.

You can't be serious

I actually have a different issue with the hand brake.

You see, I'm a big boy. And being a big boy means having big boy thighs. My big boy thighs will sometimes raise the hand brake during a shift or long extended drives to the point where it turns the red brake light on and notifies me. Now, I know that the majority of my issue comes from being a big boy lol but is there anything I could do, some sort of bracket I could use to hold the brake down while driving? At least something for driving in the canyons where unwanted e-brake could be dangerous.

IMO push button ebrakes are really parking brakes, not ebrakes, since it's almost impossible to modulate braking force with the button. Locked rear wheels will generally cause the back to swing to the side, hence the reason for a long time now cars are biased to lock the front tires before the rear if any tires would lock at all.

We are still talking about e-brakes, right?
