Right rear wheel will not turn 2004 xl7 susuki

We had the front pads and rotors changed by dealer. The brakes were working good, but when we went in for regular service we were told the were worn. After the job was done we picked it up and had no brakes when we got home. Towed to dealer. They changed master cylinder and bled the brakes. In about 3 days the right rear wheel would not turn. Towed back, Dealer changed left rear wheel cylinder and bled again. This time low peddle and brakes are spongey. Dealer changed flex line going to rear. worked ok for about 100 miles, now right rear whell will not turn and the peddle is on the floor. Does any body have any idea what could be causing this. I should note that about 6000 klms we had the right rear wheel bearing changed. Thanks Bob

This car ABS, if yes, try posting that, as i will answer for NO.
NO = short and easy. ABS = hard. (read the FSM , and see)
find a real shop with the ASE sigh,
never go there again. your dealer, he is bad for your health and others.
yes, my same bearing failed on my 04 but i found it with an electronic stethoscope (sonic ear) in 5min and did it early before brake damage.
locking brakes are very very bad , you need to find this fast.
he sounds incompetent.
if the Right rear is locked, the mech, loosens the bleed fitting
if it unlocks the MC is failing,(non ABS). mine is non ABS too.
if a new mc is installed and the rear piston clearance is not set
the MC will LOCK THE WHOLE SYSTEM up. or 1 end.
if the brake didnt release above, that means (gee simple) the brake neat
is locked. (bad bearing or wet soaked brakes or the parts assembled
ALL WRONG here.
puddle on floor, is it DOT3/4 fluid or GL4 gear lube.
surly you can tell the diffr, between them.> no?
if fuild that is wheel cylinder failure.
did you use non DOT/3/4 fluid, you must not use dot 5 or the seals will fail FAST,.....
using jiffyboobs? dont/

SOURCE: brake problem with 95 ford bronco

hello again, Your brakes are probably the most important part of your car. Without an intake system, you'll just sit there. But at least you won't hit a tree while you're just sitting there! Seriously, brakes aren't something to play around with. If your car is having a braking problem, whether it's weak brakes, a mushy pedal, grinding sounds - whatever your brake problem is, you need to troubleshoot and repair it as soon as possible. We'll help you diagnose your braking problem so you know what repairs to make. Brake Pedal Goes Too Far Down to Stop. If you step on the brake pedal and it feels like it's going too far down before you start to slow, you might have the following problems:

  • Low Brake Fluid Level: Check your brake fluid. If it's low, top it off to the mark on the side of the reservoir.
  • Contaminated Brake Fluid: Even though your brakes operate in a closed system, contaminants can still work there way into the works. Air can enter the system through the smallest hole, and you can end up with water in the system from condensation and other means. There's not really any way to check for this, but bleeding your brakes will remove the bad stuff and replace it with new fluid.
  • Worn Brake Pads: Your brakes should never wear low enough to cause your brake pedal to feel low, they'll scream at you before then. But if they do get very low, you might have this problem. Replace your brake pads as soon as possible. Of course, this can be avoided with regular brake inspection.
  • Bad Brake Power Boost Unit Finally, if your brake booster goes bad you'll have low brake pedal issues. Most brake boosters are vacuum controlled, so a special vacuum measurement device that connects to the brake booster is needed to check it. If it's bad, you'll have to replace the boost unit.

Do you know the seals are ok(master cyl. and calipers/slave)?
Have you blead front and rear?
Is the front lines out , connected to the front?
These are some of the mistakes I have made with brakes and obvious things to check/ask, but never overlook the obvious.

Front right wheel doesnot want to turn on 2004 chevy trail blazer

check that the caliper is free to slide on the mounting pins It is necessary so that the caliper body can self centralise and let the brake pads come of the disc rotor. When the body seizes on the pins then one side of the caliper will have the pad in constant contact with the rotor and makes for bad braking and low economy

Overheating brakes

I think the problem is the brake pad or caliper, brake pad are too thick or the caliper are not good casted.
First try to confirm if you get a right brake caliper ,then confirm the brake disc ,brake pad, if they all ok, tear down the bracket of caliper, put into brake pad, then put into brake rotor.

I just changed front and rear rotors and pads on my 2004 hyundai santa fe. i am getting a squeky noise when i make hard right or left turns. i am looking for some possible solutions. thanks.

Hi,
Sounds like a missing brake spacers and brake pad clips when you installed the new ones.
Check again the brake pads and make sure you have sand down the rotors w/ 220 grit sand paper.
Hope that helps you out.
Thanks for asking FixYa!

I changed the front rotors and brake pads once i was done i started the truck and the brake pedal went to he floor and the dash ifo said to service brakes. since than the brakes have been hard and...

It went to the floor because you had to compressed the piston to get it over the new pads and rotors. The brakes need to be pumped up after you replace pads in order for the pistons to come back in contact with the new pads and take up the gap. Pushing the pedal to the floor is never a good idea and a good way to ruin a master cylinder in older vehicles.

As far as the pulsation, have the rotors turned. Make sure the wheels are torqued to the proper spec when you are done (140 lb/ft). Pump up the pedal when you are done and you should have smooth braking.

In 2004 Impala, do I have rotor or drums?

The best way to answer you question is to tell you to take the vehicle to your nearest dealer and inquire with the parts dept. I can tell you that on the ffront of your car you have rotors and the brake used on the front is called a pad. Also your vehicle does not have a separate parking brake. It is the same as the regular rear brake no matter which type of brakes you have on the back.

You must have a piston stuck in one caliper, and it's not releasing the pressure off your brake pad.

NEVER swap rear tires... the radial tires are not made/designed to be driven one way and then driven the other... they WILL delaminate and come apart.. when you rotate tires, you rotate front and rear on the same side....(old bias-ply tires were rotated around a vehicle)
... if you did not have both sides of the rear brakes fitted with new pads and ..at least had the rotors turned.. do that. look closely at the inside of your wheels and make sure there has been no contact.... once you have made sure both sides are good.. reply back to me on here.. thanks... please mark as helpful.. thanks
