What is the Emergency/Parking Brake Cable all about?

The parking brake cable is a thin, steel cable that connects the parking brake lever to the parking brake shoes. It is located underneath the car. When you pull the lever, this cable enables the parking brake shoes to press against the rotor or the drum, creating the friction that keeps the car from rolling. It is just like using the brake pedal, but in this case, you are using the parking brake cable instead of brake fluids to apply the pressure. Over time the cable can rust and break. If the parking brake cable is broken, the car will roll even when the parking brake has been engaged.

Keep in mind:

The brake drums or pads often need to be removed to access the emergency brake cable. During this time, the drums and pads should be inspected to see if they also need to be replaced.

How it's done:

  • Remove and replace parking brake cable.
  • Adjust parking brake.
  • Test parking brake.

Our recommendation:

Always apply the parking brake when the car is parked. This will keep the parking brake adjusted properly. Your mechanic should inspect the parking brake cable during every brake service. They should also periodically spray rust penetrant chemical on the cable to prevent rust from building up.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Emergency/Parking Brake Cable?

  • Parking brake does not hold car.
  • Parking brake does not release.
  • Parking brake warning light is on.

How important is this service?

All services associated with proper function of your brakes are important. In addition to safety issues, ignoring small repairs can quickly lead to more serious (and more expensive) problems.

Hyundai Tucson V6-2.7L - Brake Pads Replacement (Rear) - Cranford, New Jersey
The first appointment I scheduled didn't work out and the mechanic didn't show up. I think this was just a glitch with their system because for the rescheduled appointment (with Chris), he didn't even know anything about that previous appointment. Anyway, I gave it a second chance and this time is worked out great! Chris cam (early) when he was supposed to and he was very honest about what I did and didn't need to have done. My previous mechanic told me that I needed more work than I actually did and their quote more than twice what Yourmechanic's price was. Chris took the car for a test drive after he changed the breaks (great idea) to make sure all was good. He pointed out a noise the car was making and explained what it was so that we didn't worry about it, as it was nothing important. He recommended so other services that were needed and I have booked him to come back for those things. I have read mixed reviews but so far, I am very happy with Chris and yourmechanic.com in general. I am telling everyone about it!
