Consumer Description

THE PARKING BRAKE WILL NOT HOLD WELL ON AN INCLINE. THIS IS ESPECIALLY NOTICED IN REVERSE, AS ON A BOAT RAMP WITH A BOAT THAT I AM TRYING TO LAUNCH. I CAN SET THE BRAKE AS HARD AS I CAN AND THE TRUCK WILL STILL ROLL BACK AGAINST THE PARKING PALL IN THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. IT BECOMES VERY DIFFICULT TO THEN SHIFT THE TRANSMISSION INTO GEAR. THE DEALER HAS LOOKED AT IT TWICE AND STATED THAT THEY DON'T SEE A PROBLEM BUT THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE CONDITIONS.*AK
