Heavy breaking with no ABS. Try to start breaking earlier and use less pressure.
Is it drum brakes? It's time for an inspection unless you just wanna replace the rear brakes yourself.
if back brakes are drum i would think they are worn out not allowing pistons in wheel cylanders to return. also could be valve in master cylander.altho that would cause all brakes to lock up. if disk brakes your calipers need overhauling or replacing
I am having the same problem. Ist time overhauled calipers. Right front pads wore out quickly. Next replaced calipers, same deal right front is locked to the point where care shakes and cannot be driven. Thinking proportioning valve or master cylinder? Anyone ever run into this?
The brake that is locking up on the 97 Lincoln probably has either worn pads or a sticking caliper. Check the brakes soon, as the problem could cause a wreck.
worn brakes could be the cause or check the A frame bushings
It could be air in the brake line, or the brakes getting too hot from too much friction by using the brakes on a steep hill or riding the brakes, or there could be a problem with the master cylinder.
If the brakes on a Mazda 6 are squeaking, it could be indicative of a problem. The brake pads could be incorrectly set.
Could have hit a serious pot hole and damaged the tire.
rubbing from brakes or rubbing from frame
It would be against the law for a motor manufacturer to fit a light which could cause the brakes to fail.
just keep driving, if your have not checked your brakes then i would get a professional or you could take off your tyre and look at the brakes. consider getting new ones if they are looking damaged
Vibration when applying brakes is most likely warped rotors. Another cause could be loose caliper bolts.
