A vehicle stop maintaining system is provided, which includes a foot brake mechanism for braking vehicle wheels by applying hydraulic brake pressure according to brake pedal depression, a brake force control mechanism for braking the wheels by controlling a pressurizer, an electric parking brake mechanism for braking the wheels by operating an electric brake mechanism, and a controller comprising a processor for entering a first stop mode when a vehicle stopped state is detected. The processor executes a first determining module for determining existence of an interruptive factor, and a second determining module for determining a failure of the electric parking brake mechanism. If the interruptive factor exists, the controller executes a second stop mode. If the electric parking brake mechanism is determined as failed under the second stop mode, the controller operates a notification device for issuing a notification to a vehicle driver.
