Did the 1995 Volvo 850 GLT have an alternate set of rear brakes to act as the parking brake?
I have a 1995 Volvo 850 GLT and I recently drove about a half mile with the parking brake on. Will that damage the car in any way? Also, did the 850 GLT have an alternate set of rear brakes that acted as the parking brake?|||Yes, as do most Volvo models of this vintage. I doubt your emergency brake shoes or rotors were damaged. If they were damaged, you would have heard a loud grinding which would indicate the brake material wearing down to the metal brake shoe and contacting the metal brake rotor.|||Maybe and yes. The e-brake shoes are adjustable.
