AFTER PARKING ON A STEEP INCLINE, I SET THE PARKING BRAKE BY PUSHING THE PARKING BRAKE PEDAL. THE BRAKE WAS SET. UPON RETURNING TO VEHICLE, I STARTED VEHICLE, PLACED IN DRIVE, ATTEMPTED TO RELEASE PARKING BRAKE. I WAS UNAWARE OF HOW TO RELEASE BRAKE.(PREVIOUS AND POST YEAR ROGUES STATE ON THE PARKING BRAKE PEDAL "PUSH ON PUSH OFF". MY CAR HAD A PLAIN BLACK PEDAL WITH NO INSCRIPTION). WHILE ATTEMPTING TO FIND THE PARKING BRAKE RELEASE, I ACCIDENTALLY PULLED THE LEVER TO OPEN THE HOOD WITCH IS LOCATED IN THE AREA OF MY PARKING BRAKE RELEASE OF MY DODGE. I GOT OUT TO CLOSE HOOD LEAVING THE CAR IN DRIVE. UPON RETURNING TO DRIVERS SEAT MY RIGHT FOOT TOUCHED THE PARKING BRAKE PEDAL, RELEASING BRAKE AND THE CAR SPED DOWNHILL WITH 2 PASSENGERS ABOARD AND DRAGGING ME OUTSIDE THE CAR REACHING APP. 35 MPH BEFORE CRASHING INTO TREE. HAD THE PARKING BRAKE PEDAL BEEN INSCRIBED "PUSH ON PUSH OFF", AS IN PREVIOUS AND POST YEARS OF THE SAME MODEL CAR I WOULD HAVE SEEN HOW TO RELEASE PARKING BRAKE. I HAVE PHOTOS OF DIFFERENT YEARS 2011 THRU 2014 OF THIS MODEL SHOWING "PUSH ON PUSH OFF" AND VIDEO OF MY 2015 NISSAN ROGUE SV (TOP OF THE LINE MODEL) WITH A PLAIN "NO INSCRIPTION" RUBBER PARKING BRAKE PEDAL. THERE ARE NO OTHER INSTRUCTIONS ANYWHERE IN THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR THAT STATE HOW TO RELEASE PARKING BRAKE. THE OWNERS MANUAL DOES STATE HOW TO RELEASE BRAKE.
