How do you turn off the emergency brake on a Honda Civic?

How do you turn off the emergency brake on a Honda Civic?

Melanie Mergen · Updated on
Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
Figuring out emergency brakes can be tricky since they vary from vehicle to vehicle. Here’s how to turn off the emergency brake on a 2021 Honda Civic:
  • Locate the emergency/parking brake button (a P with a circle surrounding it) near your gearshift lever. If it’s on, the red light on the button and the emergency brake indicator light on your instrument cluster will be illuminated.
  • Press your brake pedal while you push down on the emergency/parking brake button.
Both lights will turn off once you’ve turned off your emergency brake.
It’s as simple as that!

What Others Are Asking

Can you flat tow an automatic Smart Car?
I’m embarking on a summer-long camping excursion and am going to be staying in an RV. I have a Smart Car and I’d like to tow it along so that I’ll have a vehicle to easily get around in. I’ve never tried to tow it before so that’s why I’d like to know, are you able to flat tow an automatic Smart Car?

Does Root insurance offer renters insurance?
I’m moving into a new apartment next month. My lease says I need renters insurance. I currently have Root car insurance, so I’m wondering if I can get a renters policy too. Does Root offer renters insurance policies?
