The emergency brake fails to engage repeatedly. The problem started within a few months of purchasing the car. Dealer has no record of our reporting the issue prior to warranty expiring. Paperwork indicating numerous other issues, including issues with other brakes, is available. Chevrolet has been contacted repeatedly, including an email listing the 6 existing complaints on your website with the emergency brake on this model car. Response has been that since warranty expired, no financial assistance with the charges to repair (over $500 per the dealer) will be provided. No consideration given to the low mileage, the fact that this is a major repair to parts that should only wear out due to usage, and the prevalence of this issue with several cars of the same make and year.

Parking brake will not hold on incline. Will not stop car when applied. Dealer acknowledges that brake does not work properly but indicates brake can not be adjusted and has no remedy. Manufacturer says it has no remedy since it is supposed to be self adjusting. Can one sell a car with brakes that don't work?
