The parking brake is also called the emergency brake, and it is one of the most important features in any car. The parking brake keeps your car firmly in place on elevated or slanted surfaces. It can also be an actual lifesaver when you need extra braking power in addition to your brake pedal. The parking brake features a self-locking system that is designed to lock in place until you release it. The springs that help this system function can wear out over time and possibly breakdown. If this intricate system fails, it could prevent you from releasing or engaging your parking brake, leaving you stuck where you are parked.
