The foot actuated parking brake on my 2013 Yukon will not release no matter how far down I push it. The problem started recently and is getting worse. The rear shoes are thick. The cables are free and not rusted. I adjusted the parking brake cable. Still a problem. I strongly suspect the parking brake assembly up under the dash. My preference would be to repair it followed by installing a new assembly. I would appreciate any help suspicion and with fixing the problem. Thanks!

- Possible lifter tick after DOD delete
  
  By B14Sierra · Posted 19 minutes ago
  
  I'm starting to lose my mind with this truck. I just recently did a DOD delete on my 2014 6.2. Originally had a misfire on cylinder 5 and traced it down to bad lifter. I installed the BTR kit with a stage 1 cam. I also went ahead and put new complete heads on wirh new injectors. The truck runs great on the road but at idle you can tell a slight uneven shake and slight ticking sound. Can't hear it in the cab. Can't tell where it's coming from. It seems louder on the drivers side but you can also hear something on the passenger side. i can't tell if it'san actual lifter tick or injector/high pressure fuel pump tick. I did not change the oil pump and I'm hearing that I should have. I was told a new one could fix the tick but I don't know. At cold start pressure is at 40. Once hot, driving it's at about 38 and at idle it's about 32. I'm not getting any misfire codes but I have gotten a P2097 code. Bank 1 to rich on the downstream O2. I have a feeling my drivets side Cat is going bad from when the cylinder 5 lifter went and was dumping fuel on that side. So yeah, I might have a couple of things going on but that tick has got me worried. I don't want to rip this thing apart again. I don't know what I should do at this point.

  What is the weight rating on those tires? Seems like too low of pressure for that truck

  I plan on it next oil change. The Ridgeline is about due for an oil change probably next week. 39$ for mobile one. They claim a complete inspection. Brakes are getting close. Timing belt is coming up and the lower control arm bushings are wearing. I want to see what they catch and the cost. They have a five year 50K warranty. After the oil change I’ll check the plug and filter as usually do with a new place.
