Ebrake Issues

Hi guys,

I had a shop install new aftermarket pads and rotors for me. After the install my car when on a hill wont hold when I pull the ebrake. Before the install on the same hill it would hold no issues. Now it feels like it tried but cant hold it and I start to roll back. What could be the issue and what can I do to fix it.

Thanks

Why didn't you take it back to the shop and have them check it out?

I just got the car back two days ago and have been busy and haven't looked to much into it because the e brake still holds just not on steep inclines. Is there a way to adjust it?

They didnt adjust the parking brake. Its easy to do but i would take it back and let them know they didnt do it right, even if you dont let them fix it.
