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.
In such systems, the brake shoes have a âbacking plateâ of which the friction surface is riveted or glued on. These âbacking platesâ are shaped similar to that of a comma. On the other hand, brake backing plates located in drum brakes are shaped like somewhat shallow dishes that feature holes used as fasteners.
