The wife noticed a strange noise coming from the brakes so I took the truck for a drive. "Strange" means grinding !!
Turns out,o n the left front corner, the inner brake pad is totally worn out all the way to the backing plate and it is grinding on the rotor. The outter pad has lots of material left.
Could this be the result of a stuck piston(s) in the caliper ?
Next issue is whether I should pull the rotor and turn it, or just buy new ones. Over 50k mi. on these, but the outside surface looks like new.
Can these rotors even be turned ?
Aaargggg !!
TIA
