| Description of the problem | Brakes became hot after descending a steep hill. But did not cool off while driving on flat highway for 40 miles. They became extremely hot after 40 miles and pedal required vigorous pumping to activate at all when i pulled into a rest area. There was no indication of brake failure before turning into the rest area because i did not have to apply the brakes while driving on the flat road. After cooling overnight the brakes were normal. |
