Parking brake on 1997 Expedition fall to pieces, replaced both E-brake assemblies. The consumer started using the parking brake since his driveway contained a slop, until one day when he backed of out of a parking spot, the vehicle began to make funny noises. The next day the vehicle began to make grinding noises and started to vibrate badly. The vehicle was towed and the consumer was informed by the dealer that it was a known problem, but Ford would not fix it for free. The starter was replaced.
