My brake randomly locks up

Asked by GuruL1V9K Apr 16, 2019 at 11:38 AM about the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox LT AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I own an 07 chevy equinox and it has a "service stabilitrak" light. If I try to drive it, the front left brake will randomly seize up causing the light to flicker and even turn off at points. I replaced the ABS sensor and tested out the caliper and it doesn't seem to be that. I'm not sure what my next step should be

Have you checked the brake fluid and/or bled the brake line on that tire? That’d be my first check after what you’ve tried.

I had the rear calipers replaced at an autobody shop about a few weeks ago, and I checked and the fluid is good. I doubt its air in the system but I have not personally bled the system

You may want to give that a shot, it usually only takes about 5-10 min each

That just happened to my car this past week. I had to get a eight wheel hub bearing and hub sensor
