This sounds like a recall coming from DC (due to safety reasons). Good job
for the report. I will have mine looked at by the dealer on the next pass
(I need correction to the steering wheel-offset about 11:00 clock position
versus 12:00).

Well, yesterday my rear pass. brake started squeling a little bit. When I
wasn't on the brake it sounded sorta like it was grinding. First thing
this morning I took it to the dealer to have them look at it! All I can
say is WOW! They told me the secondary brake shoe came off of whatever
the heck it's attatched to and basically gutted the inside of the drum
like a dead fish! It also sheared off the end of the Parking brake cable.
I'm getting a new drum, all internal hardware, and a new P-brake cable
(And yes a rental car too, go figure, no parts on hand)! Wow, I'm glad
she's under warrantee! (She's got almost exactly 9000 miles on her)
