Hi. Do any of you have a 2026 Sportage? I have a Prestige FWD. Bought it 8 weeks ago. It runs beautifully with no problems. But every time I put the SUV in park the EPB engages. And every time I take it out of park it disengages. I do not use Auto Hold FYI. Is this correct for the 2026 Sportages? Don't see anywhere in the manual where this should be happening. I guess I have to ask a tech about it. I asked a salesperson who said that starting in 2026 it always engages in Park. But that's a salesman. IDK.

No problems with it at all. I just feel like it will fail before it's time using the EPB so many times a day. I only like using it on hills.

Thanks,

Phil
 
I have a 2026 Hybrid X Line and mine does the same. I read somewhere this is normal. I have the rotary dial shift device with a big P in the middle. When I press on that the EBP engages.
