"Dangerous"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Handbrake failed.

Had car as hire car from AVIS - appeared to be in good condition.

With the handbrake on, the car rolled 50 metres across a main road and fortunately missed all traffic/pedestrians.

Looking on google; Vauxhalls appear to have handbrake problems - how many others have experienced similar?

General comments?

Car performs well, is comfortable and would make a good family car - the handbrake issue is very alarming though.

If your Zafira is Auto, why not just put it in park and not use the handbrake? I never use mine on my Lexus.
