A parking brake shoe kit for the Chrysler Sebring restores complete parking brake function, not just the friction lining. The most common reason a freshly serviced Sebring parking brake fails to hold on a hill is not worn shoes: it is a seized adjuster that prevents the shoe-to-drum clearance from being correctly set after installation on your Chrysler Sebring. In the enclosed drum-in-hat cavity of the Sebring, road salt and meltwater concentrate corrosion on the adjuster threads, the return springs, and the strut. A kit that includes every hardware component alongside the shoes is the only way to guarantee the Chrysler Sebring parking brake performs correctly after service.
The kit for your Chrysler Sebring includes parking brake shoes with OEM-grade friction lining at the correct arc length and lining width for the Sebring drum-in-hat diameter, return springs that retract both shoes cleanly after the Sebring parking brake is released, hold-down hardware with springs and pins that locate the shoes while permitting actuation on your Chrysler Sebring, the parking brake strut connecting both shoes through the Sebring mechanism, the adjusting screw assembly setting correct shoe-to-drum clearance for reliable holding force on your Chrysler Sebring, and retaining clips and washers securing the strut and adjuster in correct operating position on the Sebring.
The parking brake shoe adjuster on the Chrysler Sebring sets the gap between the shoes and the inner drum surface of the Sebring rotor hat. In American winters, the drum-in-hat cavity of the Sebring traps road salt and moisture. The adjuster threads on your Chrysler Sebring corrode and seize, sometimes within a single winter season. A seized adjuster on the Sebring produces a parking brake that either drags against the drum when released or fails to hold the Chrysler Sebring on a slope when engaged.
Parking brake shoe kits for the Chrysler Sebring are among the most vehicle-specific brake components in the catalogue. The shoe arc length, lining width, spring rates, strut length, and adjuster thread specification for the Sebring are all determined by the specific drum-in-hat diameter of the Chrysler Sebring rotor. Every kit in the GeoBrakes catalogue is assembled for the Chrysler Sebring exact year and model, with zinc-plated or coated hardware components to resist the concentrated corrosion inside the Sebring drum-in-hat cavity.
How do I know if my Chrysler Sebring uses parking brake shoes?
Chrysler Sebring vehicles with four-wheel disc brakes often use a drum-in-hat parking brake requiring separate shoes. Some Sebring variants instead use a caliper-actuated parking brake. Use the GeoBrakes vehicle selector to confirm your Chrysler Sebring parking brake type and find the correct kit.
My Chrysler Sebring parking brake light stays on after I release it, do the shoes need replacing?
A warning light that stays on after full release on the Chrysler Sebring can indicate worn shoes, a faulty sensor, low brake fluid, or a stretched cable on the Sebring. If the Chrysler Sebring fails to hold on a slope, a shoe kit replacement combined with cable and adjuster inspection is the recommended starting point for your Sebring.
Can I adjust the parking brake on my Chrysler Sebring after installing a shoe kit without replacing the cable?
Yes, if the Sebring cable is in good condition and within its adjustment range. After correct shoe installation and adjuster setting on the Chrysler Sebring, adjust the cable until the brake holds firmly within three to five clicks of Sebring lever travel.
