FOOT BRAKE IS NOT FUNCTIONING IF PARKED ON A GRADE GREATER THAN 8 DEGREES. AS ALWAYS, FOOT BRAKE ONLY APPLIED AFTER THE GEAR IS SHIFTED ON PARK. I DIDN'T DISCOVER THE FOOT BRAKE IS NOT PROPERLY FUNCTION UNTIL SEVERAL YEARS AFTER PURCHASE. IT SEEMS THE FOOT BRAKE WAS NOT ADJUSTED AT ALL BEFORE THE VEHICLE LEFT THE FACTORY. IF I HAVE THE GEAR SET ON NEUTRAL ON DRIVEWAY, ONLY APPLY THE FOOT BRAKE, VEHICLE ROLLS BY ITSELF. *TR
