Mine were doing this, and it’s because the rails the rear pads sat on got rusted, so the pads locked in place. I posted pictures of it somewhere on here.
When you replace them (if you do it yourself) just sand those down and grease them up well.
2014EL with 98K miles … in the shop for the day
-Rear brakes serviced ... pads/rotors, checked, lubed etc. Nice to have brakes back to new condition and everything inspected. OEM hardware & they were still "ok". Shop said on the Expy they do wear unevenly. He almost got a hernia horsing those new Falken Wildpeaks around. Thought the tires were outstanding.
-Drain & flush cooling system. Guy said he had a hard time purging the OEM fluid. Said old fluid will still work but becomes acidic and good to replace periodically.
-New snake belt. No issue with it but seemed like a good idea. Will carry old one as spare (snowmobile style). Will also add socket for tensioner, I already carry breaker bar.
Looking at the bill, they didn't charge me for the serp belt.
I'll go back tomorrow and correct that.
