Hi all,
My girlfriend has a 3 year old Stilo 1.2. Since we bought it 2 1/2 years ago the handbrake has intermittantly released on its own and caused all sorts of problems. Basically the handbrake is applied and locks into position and some how manages to release.
We immediately booked it in to the dealer. They said they fixed it by making adjustments and lubrication.
It happened again so we re booked it, They then changed the handbrake lever.
It happened again after warranty. They are not interested even though through there incompetance they could not fix it.
I think its the lever (ratchet and pawl mechanism)
Are they a common fault???
Any other ideas?????
