Hello Folks. At an Ice Cream stop yesterday I noticed the rear drivers side rotor only had brake pad drag marks on about an inch in from the outside of the rotor. The other rotors looked normal, drag marks on the whole rotor face. Looks like the caliper is frozen or the brake pad somehow broke (if that is even possible.) I just had, 2 weeks and 150 miles ago, a warranty "full" brake job done at the dealer that I bought the car from and they said the calipers were fine. They replaced all 4 rotors and installed new pads.... I applied and released the hand brake thinking that might be tied in but to no avail. The car only has 48,000 miles on it, and I was told it sat in a garage for a while. I'll be bringing it back of course but I am curious if there are some common brake issues. My wife and I love this car. We have always thought it is the sharpest design on the road. I owned a 1959 "Big Bird" white on white convertible for years.
