check the brake fluid level. the brake fluid can be low and comes on when stopping or going around curves. the brake fliud level sensor uses the same brake light as the parking brake. if the fliud is low check the pads and /or shoes for wear.
Normally when the brake pedal goes almos to the floor it is an indication of low brake fluid. Low brake fluid is an indication that front and/or rear brakes are wearing. As the brake pads wear down more brake fluid will be required in the wheel cylinders or calipers. Hint, the front brakes usually wear much faster than the rear due to the fact that the fronts due a much greater braking function that the rear. Check the front pads. Don't let them get down to the metal scraping metal stage before you change them out. This causes unnessary damage to the rotors. Look at your master cylinder on the firewall under the hood in front of the steering wheel. If the fluid level is belowhte "max" mark add fluid. Low fliud should also show as a red "brake" light on your dash, but not always.
If the person who did the brakes did not release the bleeder screws on the front brake calipers to prevent pushing brake fliud back into the anti lock hydralic unit when retracting the brake caliper pistons they may have damaged the anti lock unit. Try doing a complete beed out of the brake fluid front and back to regain function.
Chanses are its the calipers that are bad, and the break hoses going from the hard line to the caliper are too, (one or the other) i've had both problems on my wifes durango, changed both calipers twice and last time replaced both break hoses, i have also done the same thing to a friends sebring with the same problem, seams to have cured the breaking problems on both. Best thing to do is replace both calipers and both break hoses, i think it will solve your break issue.
Is the fliud a lite clear brown/tan (brake fliud) or is it a dark black colour (gear oil)? It sounds like you have a brake fluid leak. Check your steel line on the rear axle and then remove the wheel and drum and check the wheel cylinder. Top up your Master cylinder and bleed the brakes. You might find the light scrubbing noise gone.
you can prevent it from inflating by wearing a anti staic bracelet. it has an alligator clip that will attach to a ground. just take your time and you will do allright. when bleeding brakes always start with the right rear then the left rear then right front and finally left front. this is a two man operation. please rate this solution thanks
