Changed all brakes on my 2016 Caravan today because they have been "wobbling" so bad it makes a ton of noise. Well, besides the outer rear driver's brake pad, which was down to literally the backing plate, they were all 90%. It seems the pads were replaced but not the rotors.
So anyways I noticed one sliding pin on every caliper would not budge. I could twist it fairly easily and can hear the grease but could not push or pull it out.
Interestingly, this is the first vehicle I've owned with dual piston calipers and massive brakes, but that's only on the front and I don't think it's related. Could it be that all the caliper pins are starting to seize at once? I jammed some grease in the stuck pins hoping it would do something. The caliper pistons pushed in easily and I've never had hot brakes or odor from them.
