Pogo_Marimo posted... Absolutely unnecessary unless you are using a manual or parking on a significant incline. I can't even fathom what people think will happen if your automatic is parked on level ground without the hand brake pulled. Really, I would love to know.Well since you're asking: 1. If you parked your car on the street, then having the parking brake engaged will keep it from rolling away or moving in the case that its struck by another car. 2. Using the parking brake can prolong the life of the parking pawl. It can wear out over time since there is a lot of stress that gets put on it when the parking brake is not engaged. This is why the car can sometimes roll back a couple of inches after you park, but pulling the parking brake can alleviate this. "The simple answer to this question is: Engage your cars parking brake every time you park your car. It doesnt matter if you park your car on an incline, a decline, or the flattest spot on the planet, you should engage the brake every single time."
