Front or Rear Brakes Recall?

[Stormthebronco]

Sounds like a moose call....... , mine's done that once, haven't heard it since.

It keeps happening to mine and so embarrassing. Thank you for helping me better describe the noise lol.

The noise has nothing to do with the recall. It usually occurs after the vehicle has sat overnight, correct? You'll have to explain that to your service manager; they have to let it sit overnight at their shop before testing it. If they still "can't find anything wrong" then insist that they let it sit overnight and have you present before they test it so you can confirm the noise you're hearing. If it happens every time you back up then just insist that you be present when they check for the noise. Either way, you may have to be there to point out the noise. Yeah, I know; they should be able to hear it without your help, but some shops will push this sort of problem back to the customer because they know it poses no danger.

This is easily fixed by applying anti-rattle grease to the back side of the brake pads, or replacing the pad using one with a factory applied anti-rattle coating.

It doesn’t just happen when sitting over night. It could be fine and then midday it makes that noise when backing out.
Thank you I’ll definitely look into your suggestions.

Did you pick your BS up today?!?

I did. Went after work on Monday and picked it up. In a weird way I can’t believe it’s finally mine after thinking I wouldn’t be able to drive it until July.

I’ll see y’all around the board. Pics soon.

Hi there. Can you send us a DM with your VIN and dealership info? I can look into this on my end.

I have the same issue, can I provide these details please?

I am actually taking it to the dealership today for a drop off- so hopefully so.

I got my notice and it says front brake pads. A few months ago I heard it was supposed to be the rear pads, oh well.

See my post on this topic here. The various documents floating around the web (most may be viewed at the link) regarding this recall have changed over time, which has caused a great deal of confusion and unnecessary worry (IMHO).

Just had this brake recall addressed and my dealer first took a picture of the brakes a couple of weeks ago when I was In for service. Today the parts came in and it was the front brake pads that were swapped out.

They’re replacing my front brakes next week for the recall. Hope it stops that sound.

It doesn’t stop the sound. That sound is a different issue all together that doesn’t have a recall, but does have a TSB.

Is it confirmed to not address it? I have a case open with corporate so if it doesn’t they do know I want more done.
