I have on TWO(2) occasions, had the park brake fail to release. I tried the manual release without any success. I disconnected battery for about 30 mins. The vehicle then started and I could disengage park break. Had to reset a bunch of things. This could be very dangerous!

With your seat belt on, you put it in drive and the parking brake wouldn't release? Did it give a warning as you started driving?

Yes, there was an icon displayed on the center screen indicating warning and brake. Actually backing out, and it wouldn't move.
