Unfortunately i'm deeper into this than i care to be, but my fathers 05 vue 4 cyl no abs has been having braking problems. Once the car gets hot or about 10 minutes of driving the driver side wheel slowly starts to lock up. When she got home this evening i jacked up the drivers front and tried to spin the wheel but it wouldnt budge. Let it cool for an hour and it spins freely. Went to Del-Car junk yard in westerville and picked up a used caliper. Put it on, and same thing. I blead the brakes as normal, made sure everything was seated properly, and made sure fluids were topped off.
Could i have received a bad caliper or could there be some other underlying issue?
Whoever can give me some info leading to a fix will receive a free beverage of choice at crown next time everyone is out.
Tia.
