EPB Stuck-on?

Set off from Braehead down the M8 on Monday and felt pulsating vibration through the steering wheel (like a puncture) at 50-60mph speeds.
Pulled off onto a slip-road and rear-passenger wheel arch side was smoking and smelling of burnt rubber.
Tyre was fine, so I went through the ritual of setting and releasing the EPB and it's not occurred since, and drives fine.
Given that I usually release the EPB, and it will do it automatically should I move-off anyway, does it seem like the EPB could be stuck-on? There was no (P) indicator on the dash.
I had my first service mid-April which included cleaning and adjusting EPB.

It does does like the EPB is stuck. Just because you had it serviced, doesn't mean it was done , or done correctly, I'd be going back to the service dept and ask them to review their work based n your experiences, it could be down ro a simple over tightening whilst re-adjusting the shoes.

I had the same symptoms but without the smoke, only heat coming from the nearside rear wheel. It was a sticking EPB RESISTANCE IS FUTILE

Hi,

please go to your dealer, tell him your symptoms and refer to LTB00079v6 which has all information for the dealer to change the whole EPB as warranty work.
