Probably just needs a bit of lube.

Me -2019 GLC 350 coupe AMG line. Mrs- ford kuga 65 plate awd powershift .
I was banned from the ford Kuga forum for Spamming . :).

As above . Work the mechanism and spray a lubricant on anything that moves , looks above the pedals , you'll see what's what.

If that fails ,have the rear shoes nipped up slightly.

Had mine replaced recently. Common fault.

I suspect it's because most people don't use it.
Just leave it in park and it seizes up over time.

Common fault, just hook up the pedal with your foot. Have been doing this for years on 05 CLK
