Does Anyone Use the Brake Hold Button?

[Watufaka]

I've tried it on occasion, but just wondering if anyone keeps it on all the time.

Haven’t tried it yet. There’s something in my monkey brain that says no no no brake is on don’t press that pedal - even though I know it was designed that way.

I use it almost every day... Love it.

I use it all the time. Only annoyance is having to turn it on every time the car starts. I wish it persisted across start ups. Same with the driving mode.

Parking brake? Brake hold?

I use it daily, Once I accidently pressed the ebrake button and sort of panicked when I was stopped at the stop light and it wouldn't budge, it was only for a few seconds but my mind was racing with WTF.

This. In this and similar situations, I turn it on. Crawling in traffic however, I'd rather have the quicker and more nuanced response of just releasing the brake pedal to move.

I just started using this feature, having disabled/ignored it from every car we've had since 2017. There is a use case for it, I'm sure of it, but will take a minute to fully integrate into my driving.
