15 3.6R parking brake issue - new clip?

[bowenx]

Hello folks -

a few weeks back i was driving and ran over a stick and i wouldn't have thought much of it however the car made an odd sound for that action.

Immediately while i was thinking the sound was odd the dash indicator light went on for the parking brake (flashing) and the info center indicated there was an issue.

After poking around and getting some info via one of the FB groups it was determined to be a loose cable from the parking brake actuator.

i was able to pop it back and was on my way. That saved me a trip to the dealer.

However, since then it has popped off one or two times and i've since used something like safety wire to ensure it stays put.

Other than that - are there other fixes out there? a new clip perhaps?

What have you done to fix that?

the design does seem a bit iffy as that particular electrical connection hangs low and does seem to be exposed to sticks and other random stuff you may accidentally drive over.

 

thanks for any input.
