Please Help!! Brake issue??
Please Help!! Brake issue??
So I've had an issue with my front passenger side brakes for a while now but it has gotten a lot worse. So bad to the point where the rims get real hot to the touch. My wheel also feels like it's wobbling but it wasn't consistant <-- it is now. It feels like I'm stepping on the brake pedal and gas pedal at the same time.
I would noticed that my right side brake was acting up after driving it for a short period. If I was on a slight hill, the brake would stop my car even though I wasn't pressing on the brakes. At first start up though, the car would be fine. The brake pedal feels normal for the first mile or so, then it would tighten up. Just a tap on the pedal would feel like I stomped on it.
I changed out the rotors, the pads and the right side brake caliper and my brakes are still tightening up. I even bled the brake fluid and still no fix. It's just the right side. The left side is fine. Someone please help. What else could it be?

Never heard of this on a Fit (especially one so "young")
But, if the rubber brake hose has deteriorated on the INSIDE it could fail to release the brake pressure...(which is what appears to be happening)

It could be a check valve issue as well as a rubber hose issue. There are splitters that send the fluids to each wheel; perhaps, even after all the bleeding done, the pressure equalizers might be causing the problems.
