Rear seals repeatedly leak, causing brake fluid on rear brake drums, resulting in the failure of the rear brakes. First failure reported above. Additional failures as follows: 6/12/2001, 21961 miles; 8/03/2001, 30046 miles; 11/02/01, 40300 miles; 9/21/02, 91056 miles; and now again 10/23/02, 96473 miles. Seals on both rear wheels leak, not just one side. I now have puddles of brake fluid under my wheels in the garage.
