I haven’t had any problems with it failing to release, but I have found that the release isn’t as smooth as I would like if I pull away too quickly whilst leaving it to auto-release. I have found this feature is less of an issue if I touch and release the accelerator momentarily before I want to move off, to give the car time to fully release the parking- brake before I pull away.

Happened a couple of times to me a few months back but not for a long time now.

Try a double tap of the accelerator, once to start the hold release and the second to apply power. On the 8V makes the release and pull-away nice and smooth.
