problem #2

Oct 152014

Dakota Sport 4.7L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 120,000 miles

Rear brakes have been locking up for years. gradually getting worse. Have replaced rear brakes entirely twice and issues still come back within weeks. Out of ideas. It has rear anti-lock brakes so why would they lock up with minimal foot pressure. Very expensive and annoying. Any ideas?
