The Electric Parking Brake (EPB) light should come on briefly as the engine is started. If it does not come on, have the vehicle serviced by your dealer.

A message may also display in the Driver Information Center (DIC). See Brake System Messages  for more information.

If the light does not come on, or remains flashing, see your dealer.

If this light comes on, there is a problem with a system on the vehicle that is causing the EPB to work at a reduced level. The vehicle can still be driven, but should be taken to a dealer as soon as possible. See Parking Brake  for more information.
