The rear brake works just fine when the lever is used while riding but the park brake will not hold even though I have used up all the adjustment.

there should be an adjustment underneath follow the handbrake cable to where it becomes 2 if that doesnt work there may be like small shoe pads behind the discs check them also.

On the accents what you need to do is to remove the plastic casing from around the parking brake mechanism. Towards the back on each side there is a screw that needs to come out. Then you will just need to wiggle the plastic casing out and around from the parking brake and set it aside with the screws. Once that is off on the inside there will be what looks like one long (gold colored) screw and at the bottom there will be a mini cable running off to each side. At the end of the tension adjuster is where you adjust it. Mine was very loose and I had to tighten it down quite a bit. It takes a 12 MM wrench. You will want to turn the wrench toward the passenger side to tighten it down. Hope this works for you.

If you remove the cover of the E-brake there should be a tention ajustment that you can do yourself.
