Handbrake Not Holding? Here’s What Could Be Wrong

This week at 1Stop Motor Shop, we had a Peugeot Boxer van in the garage with a handbrake that wasn’t holding properly. After a full brake inspection, we found the rear brake shoes were the issue. A straightforward fix, and now the van is back on the road safely!

What Causes a Handbrake to Fail?

  • Worn rear brake shoes or pads
  • Damaged or stretched handbrake cables
  • Faulty brake calipers or wheel cylinders
  • Handbrake mechanism in need of adjustment

Ignoring a faulty handbrake can lead to MOT failure, reduced stopping power, and even potential vehicle rollaways.
