Hey everybody! I have a problem with my parking brake. It just won't release when I push the button and try to release it. The parking brake is pulled all the way up and won't release. Please let me know how to release it and if you have pictures, that would be grear. Thanks in advanced

see page 2-29 of the Owner's Manual.

​​​​​​​To release the parking brake, hold the brake pedal down. Pull the parking brake lever up until you can push in the release button. Hold the release button in as you move the brake lever all the way down
