Coming down a hill into town, started smelling hot brakes. Surprised to find out it was my Jeep. Right/rear hub was pretty hot. 30,000 miles seems really early to replace a caliper. Tech noted "sticking & piston won't push back all the way". Pads didn't need to be replaced yet. Of course it wasn't covered under the Jeep extended warranty.
