Auto park brake logic

[JustDan]

Does anyone understand the logic controlling the auto park brake. I press the button to turn off the car and the shifter goes to park but the park brake only engages maybe 75% of the time. Is there some trigger like park angle or something

I have only had my truck for a couple months. The park brake has auto-set 3 times. Each time was when the truck rolled and kind of came to a jerking stop after I put the truck in park - what I assume is the transmission settling on the parking pawl.

I'm surprised they say you can daisy chain their module and the auto start/stop module and both work..I don't know enough about either modules but i'm skeptical.

I don't mind turning off the auto-start and ebrake. I feel like a pilot. I have some buttons to push before take off Does not bother me at all as it's baked into my driving routine. My fusion got me in the habit of this as it was the plug-in hybrid model, so i was always switching between EV mode, off, and auto.
