Default 2014 Z E-Brake noise

Hey quick question, so I have a fairly new 6mt 370z 7500 miles and ive never had any issues with my e brake, but recently when i park it in my driveway (somewhat of a slant not too bad) everytime I put the e-brake in it rolls back for less then a second, catches on the e-brake but makes a terrible noise almost like its struggling to hold. Has anyone seen/heard this? Thanks in advance.

Pull the ebrake lever harder. It may need adjustment or parking brake shoes replaced.

The e-brake is very easy to adjust if you are able to remove the rear wheels and have a flat head screwdriver handy

Why? I'm pretty sure the parking brake is much more difficult to work on if you have an AT
