problem #1

2007Nov 18

Ranger Edge 3.0L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 34,000 miles

BOUGHT THE TRUCK ON NOV 18 2006. HAD 34,000 MILES WHEN PURCHASED. PREVIOUS OWNER BABIES CARS. MY REAR BRAKES WILL NOT STAY ADJUSTED FOR MORE THAT ABOUT A WEEK. THIS CAUSES FRONT BRAKES TO WEAR OUT ABOUT EVERY 15-20K MI. (ABOUT EVERY 9-10 MONTHS.) (I DRIVE ALOT) THE THING THAT GETS ME IS THAT THE REAR BRAKES DON'T STAY TIGHT AT ALL LIKE THEY SHOULD, BUT ABOUT EVERY TIME IT RAINS OR IS HUMID OUTSIDE, THE REAR BRAKES ARE SOO SENSITIVE THAT THEY WILL LOCK UP IMMEDIATELY. THIS HAPPENS VERY FREQUENTLY. WHAT COULD CAUSE THIS TO HAPPEN?
