Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Right rear calipers caused excessive wear on inside of rotor and wore down to caliper pistons, in the first incident. two subsequent occurrences, the caliper rebuild kits have leaked. the ford dealer says calipers have to be totally replaced. in discussions w/ parts houses, it was determined that a lot of these same repair items are being required. it would appear that if such large quantities of these items are being sold, a "faulty" design exists with the braking system..
