2002 Jeep Liberty HELP!!!!!


LONG STORY........back in october i had my brakes done. when it rians the front wheels lock and make this metal on metal noise. i brought it back to the person who did the brakes - they couldnt find anything wrong. i brought it to the dealer and they couldnt find anything wrong. after a couple of dry months the rain started and the locking and noise was back- i went back to the dealer - it locked for them but they couldnt find anything wrong with it STILL. so i had them replace the brakes (about a month ago)- well it rained today and its worse - locking, tires sliding and the noise is loud. i am pertrified to drive the car in the rain. i am at my witsss end - please help - any ideas to what is causing it? has anyone else had this issue??

Hi there,

The first thing i would do is find a workshop with a brake system pressure gauge and have the pressure bias tested, you may have a problem with to much front brake pressure.
