I have had the exact issue.
Diagnosed as an out-of-round e-brake assembly and replaced it. (First, the dealer claimed it was my fault for driving with the e-brake engaged - SHURE!) Replacing it provided some improvement but the truck will still slide down an incline.
I certainly can’t rely on it for serious chores such as preventing the truck from sliding down the boat ramp while loading the boat!
In MA, we have an annual state inspection which includes an e-brake test where the auto tech applies throttle to judge the e-brake’s ability to hold the vehicle. We’ll see. In any event, it is as useless as a pack of gum (not a brick) under the left rear tire.
