I have a 2005 and my e-brake froze to my caliper last winter....do you have your car outside or in a garage? There is a TSB out on this for the 2005.

its in a garage and outside just depends on when my girlfriend works because she might be in there or won't be and i have only had it for 2 weeks about and it has been pretty cold im in minnesota so it would be frozen i guess what is a TSB??

did you press the button?? hahhahaaa You better get on that TSB...I ruined my breaks not knowing about the TSB when I first got the car.

well my problem is getting the e brake on not getting it to release or will it ruin my breaks either way and isn't it going to cost me because its a 2005 with 55k miles...... :/

My e-brake froze up this winter too. But my stealership wouldn't do anything about it because the TSB only covers '05-'06 and mine is an '07. They said I had to leave my car with them until they could reproduce the problem and I can't because it's my DD. I have to go to work to pay for it I can't just leave it there until they can reproduce it.

...I've gotta find another dealership, problem with that is then I'd have to travel to get there.
