I'm getting worried too. This is the second time in a week that I've read about this issue on the forum. I think I may avoid the parking brake when I get my X5 unless I park on some sort of incline/decline.

I'm curious to see how many people actually use their parking brake. This could be a serious issue with the vehicle and most folks wouldn't even know it because they never use the parking brake.
