Heheh never happened before, just saying, but why not push down more? I use around 4 clicks on slopes. Better to be safe then sorry!  :bleh:

I would think it works like the handbrake. u pull it too hard often, it will become loose. Then u will find that it does not hold anymore when u really need it on a real steep slope! So usually i just depress about enough. It really steep slope, i think maybe 3 clicks.  :smile:

I happened to have the Nissan service manual for Versa(US version of Latio), and their handbrake is wire activated. So I would imagine its the wire becoming loose after a long time. Should be able to ask the mechanic to tighten for you when servicing.
