"Brakes replaced every 24 months per excess parking and rotor rust." The bill was about $800, so I think there was some serious work more than routine brake pad replacement and brake flushing." I think the brake pads needed replacing, the brakes were flushed, and maybe parts like the rotor and/or caliper were serviced or replaced. They found major brake work needed to be done, although I don't remember what, specifically. I suggested having the shop look over the whole brake system. She had been wondering about the brakes because they were squeaking a bit. "This car actually belongs to my partner, but we share it.
After over 90,000 klm I found the need to replace pads and rotors." The rear caliper pistons finally corroded to the point they no longer functioned properly and I had to replace the calipers along with new rotors and pads." "I have owned the vehicle for over 11 years and I live in the northeast where we use lots of road salt in the winter. Once again, no recall by the manufacturer." CR lists this model year as hard on rear calipers and this could be part of the problem. The caliper pad holders were ground and lubricated to allow movement of the new brake pads when replaced. "The brake pad holders on the rear calipers were too tight for the brake pads and the pads seized in them causing premature pad and rotor wear and noise. "a rear cylinder piston operating the calipers froze, making the calipers drag." "rear caliper were not working properly - parking brake not holding when engaged. "callipers required maintenance because of previous owner neglect" I blame the shop more that I blame the part for failing" Caliper was bent and destroyed the rotor as well costing me a lot more to get repaired the 2nd time around. After driving another couple hundred miles I had metal on metal. They checked and said that everything looked fine.
"Took to shop and told them I heard break noise in right rear and thought I needed a break job. Took to shop, they could not rebuild it, so I had both rear brake calipers changed" "One of the rear brake calipers was sticking, making noise. "Periodically the antilock brakes, traction control, and stability control will stop working for a few minutes" "ABS, Traction control and Stability control all failed do to electrical connections failing Twice in last 4 years." Had to replace bearing and electrical connector wire for abs/esc to function again on vehicle." "corrosion to electrical connection (sensor) to rear bearing caused abs and esc to light up on dashboard which meant no abs/esc on vehicle.
