qcbangin Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 (edited) I have a 91 Lincoln towncar. A couple weeks ago i took it to a shop to get the back brakes changed and rotors re-surfaced. I get it back and everything is good...for a couple days. I first noticed the car seemed to be struggling a lil when taking off after pushing the brake and just burning through gas. A couple days ago I noticed if I pull the brake pedal up with my foot, the brakes seem to release. Almost like the brakes aren't releasing all the way. What would cause this and how do I fix it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. Edited May 28, 2012 by qcbangin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HatersGonnaHate Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Calipers may be sticking. Pull them out and regrease the slide pins. Or if you have drums in the back, the return springs might be seized or broken. Take it back to the shop and have them check it out.

The brakes on your car are the most important thing, you life hangs in the balance if they do not work properly.
