I was going down a hill and applied the brakes and the brake calipers on the front did not fully release. The brakes got real hot ,boiling the brake fluid out of the system.the brake pedal started going almost to floor , causing me to have a hard time stopping.it ruined the brake pads, melted the abs sensors, and ruined the bearing.i had to replace the calipers, pads, bearing and abs sensors.
Brake calipers drag, overheat, and lock up during normal operation. I was told that this was caused by linkage binding, causing inadequate release of calipers. This happened before a cross-country trip with my motorhome, and had to be repaired by replacing all calipers, and pads in brake system. Brake fluid also boiled. I understand this has happened with similar vehicles.
