| Description of the problem | With 5 weeks i had both front disc brake caliber units freeze up and require replacement because they failed to work. When in motion the vehicle felt like it was being retarded, the vehicle vibrated badly and i thought i had a flat tire. The vibration occurred at both low and highway speeds and occasionally affected steering the front rotors needed to be resurfaced and the pads were warped by extreme heat from the friction of the calibers being locked. The first episode was in late march 2017, the most recent was 5/3/2017 |
