How to turn off auto parking break

[Jakmc25]

Either I am missing something or this is the worst “safety” feature ever.
while trying to move the camper or trailer around I have always just left the door open to pull up a foot or backup and few inches. But with my 2019 bighorn if the go to move forward it automatically puts the parking break on and if I try to manually turn it off it still won’t let me move the truck. Is there a way to turn this awful feature off?

Driver's door must be closed while in drive, or you must have seat belt on, no way around it. The ebrake will engage

That is the dumbest thing ever. I mean I get the feature but it needs to be a switch like the front and rear parking sensor.
It’s gonna make parking the camper by myself this summer a pain in the butt.

Just buckle the seatbelt behind you nd sit on it. It ain't like you're cruising the highway for hours without it. Or buy one of those dummy buckles.

My truck does not have an automatic break feature. I guess the dealer messed with yours so it would automatically break when you try to park and you need to take it in to get fixed?

Mine has an automatic parking brake that comes on when I put it in park. Look in the settings on your radio U-Connect. The setting for the auto parking brake is there. There is an auto park feature that puts the transmission in park if you open the door while moving. This feature can catch you by surprise too.

Personally I love it. I think mine just comes on when I put it in park. It does not auto release unless the seatbelt is fastened. I can just reach down and tap the brake button without my belt on and it turns off. I am just glad it doesn't break.
