My parking brake lever has starting coming disengaged lately. If I push on it while getting out of the car, the brake will release. I don't have to push the button, I only have to push down on the lever. It will hold some tension, but not enough to do any good.
I pulled the lever out and noticed two things: 1) The lever itself rides on a plastic bushing. This seems a little worn, and maybe it's letting the lever move just enough to release the pall from the the teeth. 2) The lead tooth on the pall seems a little worn. Should it better match the profile of the teeth on the rack?  Do I need to replace the toothed pall and/or the bushing? Does anyone sell a replacement bushing? Thanks, Mike |
