Asked by pwalchak Jan 09, 2016 at 10:42 AM about the 2010 Mitsubishi Endeavor SE AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

On my wife's 2010 Endeavor SE AWD, the vehicle will roll backwards freely on a slight grade, despite the brake being adjusted down tight.  Tight as in "we backed off one click from the brake dragging".  Any ideas?

Remove rear tires and check to make sure cable is actually pulling on brake linkage from both sudes, it may be damaged
