Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I noticed brake drag/squeal on the rear brakes of my 2002 chevrolet avalanche. i took it to a repair shop and was told the rear brakes where shot ... and ... the rotors were so corroded they couldn't be repaired ... they had to be replaced. about 3 months after the repairs i began noticing brake drag/squeal in my rear brakes again. i took it back to the shop that did the repairs and was told the brakes were fine and it might just be "brake dust buildup." i am convinced there is something wrong with my rear brakes and i plan to take my truck to a local chevrolet dealer as soon as i have time.
