Did you guys read that you are supposed to break in your PARKING BRAKE in the manual? You are supposed to use the parking brake to slow to a stop a few times to mate the SEPARATE parking brake shoes to the drum.
It is supposed to stop that GROAN you hear as the car settles when using the parking brake. Supposed to make the parking brakes hold much stronger.
You should probably do this occasionally since the brakes are never really USED, the car is sitting still when you put them on usually. Rusty brakes squeal and don't work very well.
