You can see the details of my truck in the sig below. 35,245 miles
Had the oil changed at the dealership 3 weeks ago. Drove the truck home, 9 miles. 2 days later i washed it. The truck sat for 17 days. It is, for the most part a garage queen.
Today, 20 minutes into a 40 minute drive, i smelled brakes. I pulled over. RF rotor is so hot it's beginning to smoke. I decided to limp home slowly. I stop every 5 miles or so to let the rotor cool down some. I get out and look each time l stop.
About 15 miles after the brake had begun to drag, it has stopped dragging. It's been perfect since.
I have a theory, but l want to hear what you guys think happened, befor l speak up.
