so just wondering if theres anything bad if i drove slowely with the ebrake on for about 10 feet. music was loud and the ****ing valet guy put it on. i personally never use it, so i start pulling out and i hear some wierd whistle sound and some guy running behind me screaming at me.

 

LOL at the guy running behind you screaming... if it was only 10 feet you should be fine...

 

LMAO... haha one time my Granddad was driving his nissan quest on the fwy @ 60... i hear some grinding noises... lol parking break is kicked in ... his car seemed find.. lol

 

You're fine.

The ebrake is a drum-type system in the rear brake hat so if you use it a lot while driving it can be damaged or wear out but 10' is fine.

 

our E-brakes don't work so either way ur fine.

 

haha yup we're known to roll down sloping drive ways

 

I've been on the highway because I've left it on. I'm not used to a foot e brake and forget to take it off. So I stopped using it at all. That thing does not work anyways. Whats the point of our e brake? My car still rolls with it on.

 

I wouldn't worry.

Once I put it on (not sure why) and pulled out of my school with my windows rolled up and music playing. I left it on and didn't hear it until the song changed. I felt like an idiot. Nothing happened though.

 

thanks guys now i dont feel like such a dumb ***. i hate that its under neath and you cant tell if its on, other than the brake sign that i never see. i stopped using it to, but the ****ing dumb *** valet on a even slope decided it was neccesary. well anyways. considering removing the e brake totally. any ideas?

 

Since it's a foot brake, I've done this a few times, I usually notice after a few feet and take it off, but its not biggie unless you start picking up speed then your wearing down.
And yeah, our e-brakes don't work, lol, I have a pretty good slope on my drive way and my car's slid down during ice season like the car had NO brakes on at all, first time this happen it scared the **** out of me. Thank God for New England weather.

 

LOL i use my ebrake mostly for slowing down when i see a cop haha if ya feel u need pull it up higher u can have the dealer tighten it for u.

 

My e-brake holds on steep hills

 

Try it in New England snow/ice. and you'll be going bye bye!

 

Seriously, is this a question that needs to be asked? 10 feet with the e-brake and now you're ready to remove it?? I hope you don't plan on ever selling your car because I'd never buy a car from a guy who thought it was necessary to remove the e-brake....I'd be afraid of what else he deemed "unecessary".

The valet running behind you screaming would have been funny to see. I wish you had video....

Yes, please leave our roadways.

Thank you.
