Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The rear brake system on this vehicle appears to have never functioned properly. i have replaced front brakes, but noticed that the rear brakes did not appear to be functioning (especially noticed while in reverse). upon inspection, the rear shoes showed little or no wear. i did replace the shoes in the hope that this would correct the problem, but it has not. i suspect that the rear brakes have never been functional. the problem came to my attention when undergoing an omissions test with the rear wheels on rollers - the brakes failed to stop the wheels from turning. i did not detect this problem immediately due to the infrequency of braking under the condition of driving in reverse, although this has never been very good on this vehicle. *ak
