| Description of the problem | Car's rear passenger side caliper grabbed the brakes, started to wear rotor. We replaced caliper hose, which we thought fixed the problem. Feb 10 2014, started noticing odor. Got worse on 2/16, brought car into brake place on a sunday. Replaced the rotors, manually tested calipers, which seemed fine. 2/22, smelled same brake metal smell; brought car back in, they saw rotor was again worn blue from heat, and they replaced caliper and rotor again. Same smell on 2/25, after driving car only ~30 miles. Caliper apparently again malfunctioning. |
