What does the Brake Hold button do? 

We need more people who can explain confusing things in 2 minutes instead of 13 freaking minutes

So basically its cruise control for the brake. Thanks!

I knew this, but your explanation and demonstration made it that much simpler. Thanks. This is a simple yet very beneficial feature. As far as I'm concerned, all cars ahould come with it.

The auto brake hold is soooo important! Every car should have it along with blind spot monitoring.

Thank you ! I was just stranded and you helped me tremendously

This feature is also great if the road is slippery, like ice and snow, and you stop on a slope. You're less likely to lose traction when you start to drive, because the brakes hold just in time for the automatic transmission to engage. The car will not roll backwards, causing the wheels to spin.

Thank you for making the video. I experienced this yesterday. I will have to suggest a new video. This happened to me yesterday while on drive thru. The light turned red on the parking break and released the break and it would not release. I panicked and could not set it to drive. I turned off the car instead. That was my only option at that point. I followed the process to take the break off and I was finally able to drive. Ugh… I’m at whataburger. It’s imperative I get my dinner and keep the line moving 😜 Nissan smh 🤦🏻‍♀️

Thanks for sharing! That was so easy to understand and now I’m aware on when and how to use it! You’re awesome thanks!

Thank you perfect explanation 👌🏾

Just discovered this today! Awesome feature

Work well in New York City. I use it all the time. And active cruise control where it stop behind the other car

Great info I’ve had a 2020 civic and didn’t know

Very useful, thank you 😊

Ty! I was wondering the use of the same button in my civic 2020.

1:20 This could literally have saved Anton Yelchin's life... critical feature all cars should have!

Usually in cars with automatic transmission (with no brake hold), if one stops car with drive mode engaged and press brake - it puts pressure on both clutch and brake pads. Is it also same in case of brake hold? If that's the case, would it be still better to just shift to neutral to keep clutch and brake pads relaxed? Thanks

Thank you. It helps to know how to use it.

Hi, I noticed that my 2019 honda accord rear break pad wear faster than the front breake pad and i use the auto hold function very often is this problem related to auto hold? thanks

So does it automatically release at any point, or you have to push again to release?

What about the brake lights? With brake hold on & stopped, then I press the gas to move slowly move forward about 2-3 feet…do the brake lights turn off once I step on the gas? Also I noticed while in a drive-thru while brake hold is on, when stopped & then moving forward a few feet & stop again, all I do is lift off the gas & the car stops.

I am so buying a Honda Clarity, I can't wait.

I’m still a little confused when I turn my car on do I need to have the electronic park on or off? Can I just use the pedal park I’m consufed on the button what is it exactly for???

I’ve had my Honda for two years and I just now today noticed this button. Thanks for the video explanation! I noticed it while driving on the interstate so I must’ve accidentally hit it. Does it cause any problem to use this feature while driving on highway or interstate?

How long is it safe to hold this brake hold? is it okay to stop for like 3 minutes? Doesnt it damage the brake?

Does the parking break make a swishing sound outside the car when you engage it and disengage it? Is that normal? I recently had my door open and heard that noise which i hadn't heard before because my door has always been closed when putting on the parking brake. I have a 2016 HRV. thanks for responding.

Thanks for the vid, What does the LKAS on the top right of the cluster stand for? Its next to the ACC which i believe stands for Auto Cruise Control.

But when you press has, the break hold light on the dashboard is still on? Do you know why?

Should the car make a sound when you release it?

Does it work on steep slopes?

Hi J, Is this feature only for automatic cars? I recently picked up a MANUAL TYPE R. It has "brake hold" but I suspect it might be not applicable ? Cheers.

Is it okay to just stay at D while the autohold is on during traffic? Or I need ti put it in Neutral?

Button should have a light too , to suggest engaged ?

hmm, never use it that much, I think I'll give it a try, is using it consistently has any negative effect on break pads?

I have it on my 6-speed manual 2018 Civic Sedan EXT. And I rarely need or use it, even facing up a steep hill at a stop. I'm good enough with the accelerator and clutch that I can start out from a dead stop up a steep hill without the car drifting backwards much, maybe just an inch or so. Starting from a dead stop facing uphill has been the bane of inexperienced stick shift users since the early 20th century. People get scared because they are afraid of not getting it right when time to let out the clutch and give it gas and stalling the car out, killing the engine. Or worse yet, allowing the car to drift backwards too far and hit the car behind them. But I've been driving sticks since I was 6 years old on a farm in the 1960s!! I can handle a clutch car just fine.

I think the reason for the feature is for the manual transmission, so that way you can put it on when you're on a hill so you're not trying to heel-toe at a standstill

I am having problem to remove brake hold. Csn u help please

Cool stuff

Before I know the hold button use, I drive my car when it was on in the screen. Can you tell what will happen in the car?

thanks for great information

does the 2018 or 2019 honda civic sedan (Lx, Ex) have these features?

How does the brake button work if it's a standard?

Should we activate brake hold all the time or should we activate it only on red lights. Will.it effect brakes if we activate all the time

Braks hold for uphill starts ??

That parking brake can be automatic if you pull up and hold for at least 4 sec. If will engage automatically when you put the lever to P.

So let’s say i am in a huge traffic and because i don’t wanna press any paddles i can just relax my legs and keeps my finger on hold brakes to stop and go my car? Is that the case?

Is so funny lol. i was driving a Honda CR-V and i never knew what was that

I have a 2020 CRV. How do you get the Brake Hold to automatically be activated when you start your car? I don't want to have to press the button each time I start my car. Also, my CRV defaults to having the engine turn off each time I come to a complete stop. I know I can press the button to deactivate it, but how can I get it set up to not be on when I start my car? Thanks.

This button got jammed. Any tips how to unjam it??

My CR-V from 2017 has it & I know it’s just a convince feature but once you have a car that has it you will never wanna get into a car that doesn’t!

So do I turn it off and on between stops or just leave it on in traffic? If stopped how do I get going turn it off and step on the gas?

how do i turn it off

plz contact me would love to know if u guys deliver cars like to the Caribbean like Jamaica

What happens if I press this while driving because my dog pressed it while I was driving and I’m a lil stressed about it

Does the “ p “ button park it’s self?

So sad if "subtitles not available".

Drive through bank. Haha That’s funny Do a drive through bank robbery

Hi buddy I have a question

In case you lost brakes you need hand brake to stop the car. This electric brake is useless in emercency situations.

excuse me sir i wouldlove to talk to u personally

Justin give me a brake.

Why do you need a button for ‘brake hold’? All tesla vehicles are automatic for this feature. This button serves only to confuse the driver. A video even has to be made to explain it. 😢

That's lazy

it would better be a NOBREAK button since in most situations anybody uses this

Do you have to disengage it manually once you get going or is there a set speed where it automatically turns off?
