| Brake Disc Caliper problems |
Brakes continually overheating, wearing-out the brakes at very low mileage. Have replaced brake pads 5 separate times; rotors twice on the front and three times on back. Dealer and manufacturer cannot find a solution to the problem.
: the contact stated the hydraulic brake calipers failed to release. When the failure occurred in the front brake calipers the vehicle pulled in the opposite direction of the working caliper. The failure occurred without warning each time. Although, there was smoke and sparks present there was no fire. The left front caliper has not been replaced, but the other three were replaced on separate occasions. The problem occurred on six occasions. The vehicle is currently at the dealership awaiting further investigation by the brake manufacturer.
