How to Adjust the Parking Brake on a GMC Safari

You can make an adjustment to the parking brake on your GMC Safari right from your home garage, saving yourself time and money. The way you can tell that its time to adjust your Safaris parking brake is when you park downhill and set the parking brake but it starts to slip. The best part is that the job doesnt take long and you dont even need any tools.

Instructions

    1

    Locate the parking brake pedal on the left side of the drivers foot well. Press down on the pedal all the way to the floor as far as it will go.

    2

    Disengage the parking brake pedal by pressing down on it again with your foot.

    3

    Repeat Steps 1 and 2 at least three more times to adjust your Safaris parking brake. This automatic adjustment takes up the slack in the parking brake cable.

    4

    Park your vehicle facing downhill. Engage the parking brake. You will know you have correctly adjusted the parking brake if your Safari holds in place and doesnt slip.
