come on.
To release the parking

parking brake.
If

NOTICE:
Driving with the parking brake on can cause
your rear brakes to overheat. You may have to
replace them, and you could also damage other
parts
of
your vehicle.
If
you
are towing a trailer and are parking
on
any hill,
see “Towing a Trailer’’
in
the Index. That section shows
what to do first to keep the trailer from moving.
