Auto Park Brake when IG OFF
Howdy,
As you might've noticed, the Park Brake engages automatically when the ignition is turned off, however for me not every time engages and the car rolls when getting out. I haven't been able to truly decipher what other conditions are necessary to trigger the auto park brake on. Have you been able to decipher it? |

Park brake only engages with auto hold selected.
If you just select park, the car may roll or rock slightly until the pawl is engaged. |

Don't see any mention the parking brake engages automatically when the ignition is turned off. Under some circumstances the transmission can be shifted to P.
From my car's owners manual: P is engaged automatically Selector lever position P is automatically engaged in situations such as the following: After switching off the drive-ready state when selector lever position R, D, or S is engaged. After switching off the standby state when selector lever position N is engaged. While the vehicle is at a standstill and selector lever position D, S, or R is engaged, the driver's seat belt is unfastened, the driver's door is opened and the brake is not depressed. Before exiting the vehicle, make sure that selector lever position P is engaged and the parking brake is engaged. The vehicle could otherwise start to move. For further information: Parking brake, see page 132. I've underlined the sentence that mentions the vehicle can move if exiting the vehicle and the transmission is *not* in P and the parking brake is *not* applied. |

The section of interest is below and says the parking brake is released when drive ready state is off suggesting you need to manually apply the park brake should you wish when the engine is off and the car is in P. |

I think you’re right about the engagement of the parking brake related to remote start. I’ve actually noticed this too, but hadn’t thought much about it. But now that you mention it, I’ve ONLY ever seen the ebrake on mysteriously when remote starting from the app. I never use auto hold.. it’s off. And I don’t apply the parking brake intentionally.
