Why would a 2002 Hyundai Elantra parked on a hill with the automatic gear shift in park and the doors locked roll down the hill?

Sounds like to me that the shifter linkage didnt positively engage the transmission into park older cars sometimes have sloppy linkage mechenisms and that's most likely what happened.AnswerUse the parking break in addition to putting your vehicle in park. It is bad on your transmission to park on a hill without your parking break on. What you need to do is place your foot on the break put the car in neutral apply the parking break and then shift into park.

The parking brake light in your 1986 Golf blinks on and off every once in a while when your driving down the road what could be wrong?

Check the position sensor switch that detects when the parking brake is engaged. It might just be adjusted wrong.another optionCheck the level of the brake fluid. If there is a sensor on the reservoir cap it could be low enough to be triggering the sensor. Another Answer:I own a 93 jetta GL and my parking break light would not turn off, there is a relay switch on the fuse-box that turns the headlights off when I pull the parking break. I pulled it out and my parking break light turned off, and still turns on when I pull the parking break ... weird ... you can hear the relay engage when you pull the parking break so if you follow the noise you will know which relay to pull. Fortunately the relay is easy to reinstall if this is not the problem. I believe the 1st answer is also correct, there is a switch that is depressed on the parking break itself, might have to pull off the cover but it will be easy to find.
