parking brake issues

We bought our 02 Viggen months ago with a non-working park brake. It just pulls to the top with no resistance and no stopping power.
The first mechanic replaced pads and we sent it back twice and gave up on them.
The second place seems more competent and replaced the internal spring which had failed. My wife never tested it there, but when it was home i tried and still no stopping power.
Now, i must return the car AGAIN, but wonder if there is a 'Saab' twist to getting the park brake tight. Anyone?
