Description of the problem	3 brakes had damaged grease seals. Grease leaked and compromised the brake shoe friction. Remaining brake used up all friction material in less than 4,000 miles of driving, resulting in no braking capabilities. The result was a near collision. I was traveling 45 mph on us101 near santa barbara in a construction zone. Another car attempted to merge into the space my tow vehicle was occupying. I braked hard and the trailer, with no braking capacity, tried to pass my tow vehicle in heavy traffic with no shoulders available.
