i took my car for a test drive and when we returned to the dealers i parked in the space (which was a slight slope) appied the handbrake, and when i was getting out the car the handbrake just jumped off with a bang. i assumed this was me not applying it properly and thought nothing of it but now i know the truth!!!!!!

and the sales guy didnt even mention this when i asked if there was any known problems with the civic. maybe he just didnt know about this problem or maybe he was being sneaky!

will have to watch out for that cos the slope was very minor and i wouldnt even concider any other methods of keeping my car in 1 place than the handbreak! my driveway is steeper!!!!!!!!
