hot brakes!!

[TEKILA]

hey guys

so yesterday i was driving on the eastern freeway getting off onto hoddle street and as i came to a stop i noticed my rear brakes made a squeek noise.

I looked in my side mirror and noticed they were smoking, my first instinct was to check the handbrake which wasnt on, and the car wasnt sluggish at all. so i pulled over and the disc was literally glowing red!!


Took it to a ford dealership, got them to give her a service as it was due, but they couldnt rectify why my brakes were glowing red. they said it could have been caused by something being stuck? they took the disc off and checks everything and all clips etc were in place.

I had the discs and pads on the rear replaed 13000 kms ago, so they are stil pretty much new. i had the tyres replaced about 2 weeks ago. i dont thrash the car and brake hard, and didnt hit any pot holes so i was stumped myself.

Could any one explain please???
i have lost a bit of life in the discs and pads which im not too happpy about, but i will be getting a new car in november so il be happy to have them last until then.

thanks
