Ford Repair: F150 repair (2000), brake bleeder, caliper


Question
2000 F150, recently had the front brakes replaced and within less then 10 mile the drivers side front pad started smoking. There is obvious hesitation with the drag and the pedal is actually higher when this is happening.

If the slides are greased and the caliper is ok and only one side that this is happening to could it possibly be the line from the brake module to the caliper be faulty?

Answer
Hello Tony, You could possibly have a bad brake line the flexable one. push down on the brake pedal and have someone or you loosen the brake bleeder to see how mush fluid comes out. If there is not alot then probaly have a bad hose. Hope this helps Thanks Tony
