The button on the front of the hand brake is quickly sliding inside and not coming back out like a scared turtle. If it moves any farther inside I won't be able to reach it. How to I fix the problem...is it something that can be fixed from inside the car or do I need to crawl underneath?
Thanks!

Re: Hand brake button
I found the plastic hand grip slides up with time. Pull it back away from the button if it is the problem. It was an easy fix on mine,not sure if your button is hooped. I have a couple of spare handles kicking about if you need one.
