on the 89-93 isuzu amigo equipped with disc, the mechanism that engages (lever) on the caliper that connects to the hand brake, over a period of time will fail. causing the caliper to not fully release which inturn leaves the pads draggin the rotor as the rotor gets hotter everything expands causing mot=re friction til they will almost drag you to a stop. I'm currently trying figure a way around the design but its not looking good. the other thing to check are the hand brake cables. there are two semi sealed cables that go where the main splits (somewhat easy to remove and check) but this cable over time will get dirt and crime inside cauing them not work smoothly or fully release. last if its going to get really cold outside (below) freezing your rear brakes may lock up. over all I love my Amigo but the brakes are worst a nightmare.
