What is the reason why the car still cannot move after releasing the handbrake?

[LaGavin]

Car still cannot move after releasing the handbrake: reasons and solutions are as follows: Handbrake cable not retracting: Replace the handbrake cable. The professional term for handbrake is auxiliary brake, which operates differently from the main brake system. It uses a steel wire cable connected to the rear brake shoes to brake the vehicle. Long-term use of the handbrake can cause plastic deformation of the steel wire. Since this deformation is irreversible, prolonged use will reduce its effectiveness and increase the handbrake's travel distance. The handbrake system also includes a return spring. When the handbrake is engaged, the spring is stretched, and when released, it returns to its original length. Long-term use can also cause deformation of the spring. Temperature too low: When the weather is too cold, the outer sheath of the handbrake cable may harden or freeze if there is water inside. Even if the handbrake is released, the inner cable may not retract. Solutions include exposing it to sunlight or pouring hot water on it. Additionally, the brake pads and brake drum may freeze together, preventing separation. Pouring hot water or gently tapping to separate them may be necessary.
