So i just bought the car about 4 months ago, used with 70k on it or so, and within a week the right rear caliber seized, I replaced it with a rebuilt one, Today i was coming home and i smelled the brakes burning, here the left rear seized up.

Is this a issue with these cars? or is it just from old age? its kinda sucks because there $89 a piece remaned >< , I'am just wondering if the Front ones have any issues like this i need to know about before i fork over more cash, ide like to know if its expected .

 

damn that's what I call bad luck! haha. Brakes need maintenence just like everything else. Fresh fluid would be a good thing to do while you're swapping out the caliper. There are people that have this problem, but it can happen to any brake caliper...

 

Seems the previous owner did not maintain her well, I will put life back in her
, I flushed the fluid and it all seems well now, I am just worried about the front ones acting up now.Oh and is the OEM pads ceramic ?

 

yes, ceramic

 

It seems the rear calipers tend to sieze up more often than the fronts. Best thing to do to prevent that is flush the brake fluid every other year. Some hardcore people do it annually, but usual frequency is every 2 years. Brake fluid maintenance frequency is based off time because it does not necessary break down with increased mileage, but over time it does become saturated with water and that will corrode the brake components from the inside.
