Description of the problem	After getting a brake job i drove truck on freeway when the back wheels locked up causing severe bouncing in the back end. The truck was returned to the repair shop but locked up a couple other times on way back. They believed that they had overtightened the parking brake causing the lock up. They adjusted brake and i again took truck out onto freeway and had it lock up again a couple times. I returned the truck to the repair shop again. They then believed that there was a leak in a rear seal that was causing rear brake pads to get wet and expand, causing them to swell and lock up. They made further repairs and i drove the truck as normal for about two months when the rear end locked up on me again. Each time it locked up it was while driving at higher freeway speeds. Once pulled over to shoulder the rear end would free up and then drive like normal. The last time it happened was in march while on vacation. It has not happened since, however, i am careful to drive at slower speeds on freeway. I recently heard of the investigation into this problem in 2009-2010 dodge ram 1500 pickups and believed my truck may have the same issue. The repair facility that i was using at the time is s & k muffler, 1317 n. Main, royal oak, mi 48067, (248) 548-9225.
