Consumer Description

WHILE PULLING OFF FROM A STOP, THE ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE TURNS ON BY ITSELF. THIS HAS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES, TYPICALLY ON FLAT CITY STREET AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE CAR TO DRIVE IS TO RESTART THE ENGINE, BUT THIS SOMETIMES TAKES A FEW TIMES TO START.
