My 2008 ford taurus has a problem with the brakes . i have replaced the pads twice. the last time was on 4/21/10. that was when i noticed that it was smoking after i drove from work. which is 17 miles from my house. a employee at auto store asked me if used the parking brake often . i said yes he told me to stop. the brake problem stopped also. the brakes were only going bad on one side. the back right. i could smell them burning and i did not know what it was. now i am waiting to see if happens again i feel like the parking brake was the problem. but why i do not know . *tr

2008 ford taurus with 20250 miles has excessive brake drag, causing deep groves worn into the rotors. when i apply the brakes they make a grinding noise and they are rubbing as i drive down the road, thus the calipers are not releasing all the way. it is obvious the rotors are too soft. at 16500 i complained to szott ford in holly michigan and they wanted to charge me 139.00 to turn one rotor! i asked if the brake pads were worn they said no, i had dirt in the calipers? now three of my rotors are worn. i know this was a problem on the ford 500. why is this not covered? *tr
