We have a 2001 Mitsubishi Galant ES. We had the brakes done yesterday (front disc, rear drum), and now the emergency brake handle can hardly be pulled up.
I can do it, but my wife can barely lift the handle, and then, can hardly release it.
What might they have done that would cause the emergency brake cable to be tighter than before...
Just as a side issue - my wife ALWAYS puts the brake on - What effect does this have compared to the auto trans in Park ?
