So, I've brought this up a few times on this board with varied answers to its cause, but I'm looking for input based on events yesterday.
I've had a series of brake lock-ups while at highway speed. Usually, I pull over and restart the car and it goes away. I recently had LR do a full inspection of the brake system and they determined I was crazy. Well, yesterday I had a full lock-up of the brakes while crossing a mountain gap near Waynesboro, VA. Fog, rain and guardrail and I can't do more than 30 mph without the car violently shaking against the brake rotors.
I followed some climbing trucks, made it to an off-ramp and got off the highway. When I stopped, my back brake rotors were literally steaming up. LR picked it up (got a nice Kia Rio in return) and they are "reviewing" the situation this morning.
I am lobbying that if they don't know what's causing the problem, they need to replace the entire system: Module, rotors, calipers, pads, brake line, brake flush, etc. Yes, I'm asking for a lot, but I could have been killed yesterday, too. They obviously don't know what's wrong.
Is there something I should be looking for or asking for in this situation as far as replacement of parts? They're a bit worried that they gave me a clean bill of health not a month prior, so I'm going to push this a bit.
