My wife was driving when the brakes began to seize and there was a burning smell. She continued to attempt to drive and the car was slow to accelerate which caused the car to overheat. The warning light came on and advised to turn off ac and stop car. She stated that the brake pedal was very hard to press. She stopped the car allowed it to cool down then proceeded to cautiously drive home. I immediately drove it and noticed a slight burn scent but the car seemed to be ok other than the power brakes were no longer functional. After the car sat for 6-7 hours I drove it for about 1/2 hour with the power brakes now functioning. I took it to the shop and had entire system (calipers, rotors, pads, lines, etc. ) examined and at that time it could not be replicated. My wife drove it the following day and after 25 minutes of interstate driving the power brakes were again not functioning. She parked it for 3 days at the airport and upon her return the power brakes worked for about 15 minutes before they no longer worked.
