When is the last time you replaced your front brakes? I replaced my front calipers and pads all around, and when I left my mechanic's (aka my brother's house) I got about 2 houses down and tapped the brakes and my rear brakes locked up. The rear calipers were warped and the pistons were stuck out and wouldn't go back in. Could this possibly be happening with yours?
