Yes, mine does the same thing but only when pointed down hill. Pointing up hill, the brake holds as soon as I pull up the handle. I think it has something to do with the emergency brake's drum-inside-disc design.


There is thread here about a loud "CLUNK" when you pull up the brake handle while moving forward (to slow down without showing brake lights). From that, I surmise that the emergency brake shoes are designed, for some reason, to shift when the car moves forward when the parking brake is applied.
