Hello,

I have had to replace my brake caliper about 3 times. It seems that the brakes engages and burns out. It is my rear-right (passenger) side brakes. All the other brakes work fine. However, this caliper seems to push that cylinder out and stays that way.

What would cause this?

Check the brake hose for that caliper who knows the hose is collapsed internally acting as a one way check valve
