handbrake seizing from cold?

Post by smigxc90 »

Hi all,
New to forum and just after some advice.
The wife went to take the kids to school this morn and came running back in a minute after leaving saying the car wouldnt move. Sonded like the handbrake hadn't released fully.Got her to work it a few times and rolled back (didnt sound nice at all!) then fwd and it was free.Is there anything I could check/adjust? with limited knowledge. The car sits on drive overnight which is on an incline with the rear wheels on the low side (not sure if this would make a difference but just to let you know.)

Many thanks.
