In this video, you will learn how to adjust the parking brake on a Volvo XC90. The adjustment system for the parking brake is located inside the passenger door. To access it, remove the trim covering the inner side of the door and look down.

You will find a collar surrounded by a black rubber grommet. In the center of the collar, there is a knurled handle that allows you to easily grip the metal rod and turn it clockwise or counterclockwise depending on the adjustment needed.

If you feel it is loose, turn it until you feel it tighten.
