There is a race bearing on the back side of the rotor. If you haven't replaced it, I would strongly recommend it. You should change those out every time you change your rotors. Most new rotors come with new race bearings, if it did come with a new one (and it isn't shot yet), pull it out and pack it with grease. Wear latex gloves, put a pile of general purpose grease in your hand, and start stuffing the grease into the bearing until it comes out the other side.

SOURCE: 2005 Outlander has now new rear brake shoes and

Under the center console is a Y in the cable that leads under and around the top/rear side of the brake handle. At the top/rear of the handle is a locknut and threaded shaft to adjust tension.

Be sure to not have any drag on the brakes when you are done adjusting!

SOURCE: My brakes arent working correctly after getting new pads & rotors

Go back to where you had the brake job done and tell them they did not bleed the brakes correctly and it is causing you problems. Make them road test the car before any work is done. Once they bleed the system it more than likely will work normally

low fluid most likely. i would look at the inside of each wheel and look for any wetness that whould indicate an oil leak. either a bleeder valve was left slightly loose or a cylinder was damaged upon replacement

Just had front brakes done but still hearing squealing from brakes do you no why this would be
Squealing from brakes when applied (and sometimes even when not) is a common issue with many vehicles. There are a number of reasons for it, most often it is the brake shoes/pads themselves. Most manufacturers today install ceramic brake pads as OEM parts, but due to their cost, most drivers opt for semi-metallic pads when replacing them. Most manufacturers recommend anti-squeal shims and/or compound be applied to brake pads for disc systems, but they are often ignored and not installed. Older, sticky calipers can also cause poor release of brake pads, resulting in drag and noise. Lastly, worn, warped, and thin rotors can add to noise issues. Having well serviced, quality brake parts and using proper installation techniques will usually remedy brake noise issues. Just as a side note, residual dirt and grease from the installation itself can cause noisy brakes for a few days/weeks after first install until it is worn off and the pads break in. If you have issue beyond the first two weeks, and you have had them installed professionally, take it back and have them verify that the pads were installed properly.

Break loose your Lug Nuts Jack it Up Secure the Car with Good Jack Stands.Then finish remove tires,Besure To take the cap off your Masrer Cylinder and Take a Suction Bulb and Remove not Quite 1/2 of the Brake Fluid out of the Master So when you Push the Pistons Back in the Caliper you don't Get Brake Fluid Everywhere. Know you'll see your Calipers and Brake Pads. Remove Calipers.NOTE: Check your Calipers for Corrosion that Builds up over the Years on the Caliper piston.

I would Just Replace both Rear Rotors.Also while you have the Wheels Off, Inspect your Rear Bearings.If the are not showing Wear then Clen Them and Re-Pack with a Heavy Duty Wheel Bearing Grease & New Cotter Pins. NOTE: Your Rear Pads in Most cases for that Particular Vehicle Sometime the New Pads come with Rubber Shims,These will go on the Back side of your Inner Pads on Both Sides. Just Reverse the Removal Procedure And Your Good To Go.Don't For get to Check the Fluid Level in Your Master Cylinder.Top it off if Need.

Replace the rear brake pads and rotors. what are
they are to stop the vibration from the rotor to the pads to the foot pedal.
not so much of a shim as a vibration damper. most have a sticky side on them so check for it first before installing.
