2009 Gmc Sierra 1500 Brakes Problems

AT AROUND 4,000 MILES THE FRONT BRAKES SQUEALED OFTEN, MOSTLY WHEN IT HAD BEEN SITTING FOR A WHILE. (BRAKE PADS HAD A LOT OF MEAT LEFT). AT AROUND 10,000 MILES THE BRAKES STARTED GRABBING WHILE DRIVING. I PLAYED WITH THE E-BRAKE SOME SINCE THIS IS THE MOST COMMON CULPRIT, AND THE GRABBING WENT AWAY SOON AFTERWARDS. FAST FORWARD TO 80,000 MILES WHERE I CHANGED OUT THE FRONT BRAKE PADS. THE SPRING RETAINER CLIPS WERE COMPLETELY DESTROYED, AND THE PADS HAD SIGNS OF GRABBING (HAD UNEVEN WEAR). MY NEW PADS ARE SQUEALING JUST LIKE THE FIRST SET OF PADS DID. I'M ASSUMING THE SPRING RETAINERS ARE HITTING THE ROTOR, SQUEALING, AND EVENTUALLY BREAKING. I CAN ONLY GUESS THAT MY NEW PADS WILL BE GRABBING IN A FEW THOUSAND MILES.

2009 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONSUMER STATED IT FELT AS THOUGH THE BRAKES WERE DRAGGING WHEN COMING TO A STOP OR A LIGHT. *SS THE CONSUMER STATED THE PROBLEM BECAME PROGRESSIVELY WORSE, PARTICULARLY WHEN TURNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND A PROBLEM. HE RETURNED TO THE DEALER, A MONTH LATER, AND STILL NO PROBLEM WAS FOUND. THE CONSUMER REPLACED THE BRAKE FLUID, AND IT RESOLVED THE PROBLEM FOR A SHORT WHILE. *JB
