Hi! Hope everyone is doing great!

Have a quick question for Acura experts, any feedback is highly appreciated
There is a button for the electronic park brake for hill parking and overall.
So I'm wondering if there is any way to make it so the parking brake activates itself when I press 'P' - Park and deactivates automatically when I go 'D' or 'R'?
Instead of pressing the parking brake manually every time. I know it is super minor movement but I have seen automatic Park Brake activation in Lexuses and that is why it got me wondering if my Acura can do the same.


Thank you,

 

If my memory serves me correctly, when you use the "Brake Hold" feature and put the car in Park, it automatically engages the parking brake. To disengage, fasten your seatbelt and put the car in gear. As soon as you start to accelerate the parking brake will release. The key is having your seat belt fastened.

 

No way to automatically apply parking brake. BUT, you can automatically deactivate it. When you are ready to drive, put on seatbelt and as soon as you tap accelerator pedal it will remove parking brake.

 

Thank you so much, this is helpful. Appreciate that
