From the get go, the parking brake barely worked. If I mashed it to the floor, it would hold a bit, but any type of hill was no match. I read that there was an adjuster on the brake pedal assembly, so I gave it some turns with a 10mm deep socket/ratchet. After about 4-5 turns, I tested it and it was a bit better. I repeated this process 2 more times before it started holding like it should.
