Rear calipers does not retract brake pads and there is a constant howling noise. Caused the wheel and rotor to become over heated and braking was diminished. Also brake pads fit into caliper to tight and will not retract when brake pedal is released causing brake rotors and pads to become over heated and cause components to be glazed over and diminishing braking distance. This is an ongoing problem which Ford is aware of but there has been no recall or remedy to fix it.
