Often gets warning about Parking Brake malfunction. Dealership already checked once and could not find the problem. Warning comes on speedometer as follows: "Parking brake: malfunction! Please contact Service."
Two issues: The small portable air pump that came with the car would blow the fuse to the 12V cigarette lighter. After a new fuse is put in, this would happen on about every third or fourth time of using of the pump. I have replaced about 5 fuses already. The second issue is the squeaking of the rear brakes when backing up during cold or hot. However, it does happen more when cold/in the morning. A factory dealership had look at the issue but found nothing.
