Parking brake malfunction
If you are unable to deactivate or activate the parking brake after several attempts, contact an authorized Volvo workshop.
A audible warning signal will sound if the parking brake is activated while the vehicle is being driven.
If the vehicle must be parked before the problem is rectified, secure the vehicle so that it cannot roll away.
To secure the vehicle, make sure it is parked on level ground and:
- Block one or more wheels using chocks or another suitable object.
- Angle the front wheels toward the curb or similar.
Replacing brake pads
Due to the design of the electric parking brake, the rear brake pads must be replaced by a workshop. An authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.
