if I get on it real hard in first gear, the parking break comes on for liek 10 seconds... why is this??? I just had my 60,000 mile checkup done, so it couldn't be low brake fluid.. could it?
thanks Scott

check your brake fluid level.
if its low, it could mean you need brake pads.
do a search on this, you'll find some in depth answers.

makes sense to me, what else is he supposed to say?
im 99% sure DavPak is right, and it happens when you floor it because the fluid moves to one side which causes the sensor to think its low, which it probably is (but not by much)
