I’ve had 2 Hondas with this feature. Very easy to use and convenient.

It’s actually two systems in one, the traditional parking break, and one while you are in stop and go traffic.

Awesome this will come in handy here in California

When you turn the car off, the e brake should automatically engage especially for manuals

Isn't the entire point of an "emergency brake" in a modern auto to function if there's an electrical issue? Especially on cars with wire throttle and steering?

[Rambouillet]

Woah Honda's really overestimating MY intelligence!!!!🥺🥺🥺🥺

[jorgeluisortega]

I rather just use the pedal and hand brake so simple less costly to replace too

[dsb]

Does it have any function as an emergency brake in the event of a failure in the main braking system?

[htmx]

Both of these should be ON by default. Or the car should at least remember what was the last setting. My MK7 Golf remembered

Does electronic parking brake keeps engaged if parked for long time and battery runs out?

How to turn on automatic electrical brake system. For an example it will auto turn on when you park your car and shut down your car??

[ZandaKristy]

I pressed the BRAKE HOLD button once when I bought my VW Golf and have never needed to press it again. It stays turned on every time I start up the car and drive off. I live on a very steep hill and it makes starting and stopping on a slope effortless. I just can't understand why Honda would require you to turn it on every time you get in to their cars? It's such a shame as I love Honda's.

Seems like a manual parking brake would be safer

[reanult]

Does this function also work when you are driving downhill ?

[gicurusu]

You need to test it to see how it works

[yonyon]

Brake hold seems a risky tech if malfuntion for minor accidenta.

[bostan_]

But you have to reopen it every time you start your car :/

[ybrik]

the more features...electronic...the more likely they can break....oh welll...brakes!

[josedavidrivera]

The brake and hold makes no sense if you have the engine idle on

[ukestudio]

Way too many steps..if you rent a Honda ..could easily forget a step.

I’ve tried accelerating on parking brake but it never moves.
