Model: Suzuki Vitara JT - Years 2005-2015
Part: Parking brake

When we go to pull the handbrake and the lever or we find excessive resistance or the cable is too loose, we have to lift the car and remove the rear wheel. Then proceed to position the disc of the drum with the hole in line with the cable adjustment ring. Then use a screwdriver to adjust the ring nut and then pull or loosen the cable.
