Consumer Description

ON 3 OCCASIONS THE REAR PARKING BRAKE HAS HUNG UP AND CAUSED EXCESSIVE CHATTERING AND SHUDDERING AT SPEEDS OVER 10MPH. CAUSED THE PASSENGER REAR BRAKE ROTOR AND ASSEMBLY TO BE SO HOT THAT SMOKE WAS EVIDENT. CAUSED CALIPER ASSEMBLY TO FAIL WITH LESS THAN 40,000 MILE FOR THE 3RD TIME. DEALER SAID TO DISCONNECT PARKING BRAKE OR PULL OFF THE GLUED BRAKE LINING AND NOT TO USE IT ANY LONGER. ON LAST OCCASION NEW ROTOR AND CALIPER WAS INSTALLED LEAVING THE PARKING BRAKE ADJUSTED WELL AWAY FROM THE DRUM AND I WAS SUGGESTED TO NOT USE THE PARKING BRAKE BECAUSE THIS IS A SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH OTHERS. *TR
