A loose parking brake is another symptom of bad or failing brake shoes. For vehicles equipped with drum brakes, the brake shoes are what hold the vehicle in place when the brake is engaged. If the shoes become worn or dusty, they may not be able to hold the weight of the vehicle without slipping.
1 Unlike brake pads, brake shoes can be re-manufactured or recycled for future use. 2  During braking, a wheel cylinder in the drum brake system forces the brake shoes outward and against the spinning brake drums.  This creates friction, slowing the drum and as a result, the vehicle.
