    Left front caliper is not releasing, one or both pistons seem to be hanging up. Inconsistent problem while driving and when this happens, vehicle pulls hard left when braking. Been to dealer twice and all they did was lube the slide pins. Now vehicle is past 3/36 warranty

The trailer breaks have been checked and are good. The trailer has also been connected to another vehicle and the…

    Factory installed trailer brake controller on the highest gain setting only slows truck and trailer minimally. After market brake controllers do a much better job.
