Toyota Aurion 2010: Weak park brake

My 2010 Toyota Aurion park brake will not hold on an incline. It is so weak that it feels as though it hasn't even been applied. But it will hold on a decline. Is there a recall? I haven't talked to Toyota yet because I feel that it is possible that they are aware of this, but avoiding the issue.

You're not on your own with this issue, it's often reported by Aurion owners, but there is no recall or alert that we could find. Make sure the park brake is correctly adjusted by loosening the cable, adjusting the brake shoes and then adjusting the slack out of the cable.
