Description of the problem	I was driving my vehicle down the road, it had been about 10 minutes since i had left the service department of my local dodge dealer to have my a/c serviced. My rear brakes had been serviced less than 6,000 miles previously and had been checked the night before by a just brakes technician. As i was driving i began to hear some squealing. When i stopped at a red light i noticed a huge amount of smoke pouring out of the rear of my car. I was able to accelerate enough to coast in to the just brakes shop where technicians looked at my vehicle and discovered a total brake failure of my rear brakes. The temperature had reached so high that the assembly itself was white hot and smoking. Had i not been closer to the shop my brakes might have failed because the pads were totally destroyed when they took them off. I have the old pads in my possession.
