I believe you must buy new e-brake cables if I'm not mistaken.

How to tighten an emergency brake cable on a 2000 Chevy cavalier?

What if you've checked your brakes and they are fine. My e-brake cable is stretched out and no adjuster is anywhere to be found. Is there an adjuster for a 2002 cavalier? before you think about adjusting your e-brake cable, you may want to inspect or have your rear brakes inspected. most of the time the e-brake cable will not need adjusting and the problem lies in excessive wear on your rear drum brakes. the e-brake functions by mechanically engaging your brakes (as opposed to hydraulic actuation from your braking system) in the rear. if they are too far worn, the cable pull created by your e-brake lever will not fully engage or may sometimes not at all engage your rear brakes. you could tighten the cable, but you would need to readjust when you had the rear brake shoes replaced. check your brake wear first. if that doesn't solve your problem, then adjust the e-brake.
