Re: [DML] Front brakes wont release

["Dave Sontos" <dsontos@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ugh. Sometimes shit happens. It sounds like dirt or debris got into the
front brake line. I've also had this happen when the old rubber brake hoses
by the wheels degrade and the inside rubber plugs the hose up.

As is my old adage, always contact the vendor FIRST before posting on the
DML.
