On a 2008 Ford Fusion se 4 cylinder I have had to replace the right rear brakes twice before 50,000 miles. It appears the calipers are sticking. I even spoke with Ford mechanics that say this is a problem but no recall has been filed. I looked on line and seems to be well known, but nothing has been done.
