Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: When road conditions are wet, the rear brakes on my truck lock-up as the vehicle is coming to a stop. this is a dangerous condition, as it interferes with my ability to control the vehicle during wet conditions. additionally, when i accelarate from the stop, the rear breaks release with a loud clunking sound. the problem has occurred in the past after going through a car wash, however, the problem did not persist since the wheather conditions at those times were dry. in the last incident, however, the problem persisted since the wheather was rainy and the roads were wet. i am very concerned regarding this problem. *ak
