Kia Niro: Maintenance / Parking brake
Checking the parking brake
Check whether the stroke is within specification when the parking brake pedal is depressed with 20 kg (44 lbs, 196 N) of force.

If the stroke is more or less than specified, we recommend that the system be serviced by an authorized Kia dealer.
