This has become a chronic problem with my 2016 that has about 22k miles..
The front calipers sometimes don’t release and I begin to smell them thru the vents.
The rotors get scorching hot.
The first time it happened was a few thousand mikes ago and my local indie took them apart, lubed and they worked fine. About a thousand miles later same thing.
For the third time it happened a day ago. I had just done a round trip to NYC (about 700 mi RT) with very poor mileage on the return.
Then the next day on a local run I smelled them and the left fron rotor was very hot, the others normal.
This can’t be normal-there’s got to be a reason why this happens. It doesn’t make sense that normal on-road driving results in stuck calipers.
Could this be a computer problem?
Any ideas?
Dealer is 2 hrs away. Is this a dealer/warranty problem because of some defect?
