Joey Maheux Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 Replace the rear brakes 13 month after having the car, drivers side was worn almost all the way through. The passanger side was near new. Brough it to a local Ford dealer and the said everything was working fine. Shortly after the drivers side rear wheel is extremely hot and a loud squeaking sound is coming from that wheel while driving. Brough it to another local Ford dealer who replace the caliper. On the ride home form the dealership the wheel begins to make the same loud squeaking sound. At this point in time I replaced the break pads again thinking the other replacement may have been damaged from all the heat. Noise and extra heat is still there on the drivers side with new high quality brake pads, new rotor, and a new capliper. Any ideas on where to go? Ford dealer has had the car twice in two weeks and no luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmacd27 Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 Check your brake hoses, a collapsed hose can cause the brakes to not release completely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ls973800 Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 Collapsing brake hose which isn't allowing the brake fluid to be pushed back out of the caliper and the caliper is sticking? Bad proportioning valve or master cylinder which is causing continuous pressure to just that one line? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrHappy Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Had this issue, it is likely corrosion on the slider causing it to not disengage. Burnt through pads and rotors (which ford didn't cover under warranty even though this happened inside our factory warranty coverage and they were just inspected prior to).
