Something doesn't seem right......

My early 2022 still pivots from the top. Interesting how they changed it!

If I remember right I think they flipped it as to not confuse people and differentiate it from the hood latch below

That's totally upsidedown!! That's hilarious!

Seems intentional since the wording is not upside down.

My 2022 that was built in March has it the old way with the pivot on top. This looks weird lol.

I guess that is true, but I've never seen it before.

Since day one, I've always thought something was wrong with my parking brake switch........

My MY23 BL Lux is just like that. Pivot from the bottom, pull on, push off. I use it ALL THE TIME since I have the 7spd. I don't like it. Want a mechanical brake.

i have a 22 and it's the opposite orientation of that

Wonder if its a 7 spd thing? Mines also a manual.

Hell, I don't even know where mine is. I've never looked for it. Lol!

Really?! Use mine all the time. Aren’t we supposed to engage it whenever stopped … even at traffic lights?

Certainly possible. Might be a power train thing too. 2.3 on way, 2.7 the other?

Who has a 2.3 automatic? Which way is your e-brake?

My June 21 4dr black diamond 2.3auto and my June 22 2dr black diamond 2.3 mansquatch are the same.

Welp, shot that theory square in the ass...

Probably had a run of bad parts labeled backwards so turned them upside down to be able to use them. Looking back at early pictures, looks exactly like Ear_Guru's, which seems to be the logical way to install.

Being electric, it seems like it would be better for everyone to put the switch in the shifter and have it auto engage when the car gets put in park.

I did notice that from 2021 model year to the 2022 and 2023 the flipped the switch upside down. On my 2021 its flipped and you pull it rather that push it down on the 22 and 23. Seems really odd to me as well.

It’s because all the idiots ripping it off acting like it was a mechanical break I bet.
