SERVICE BRAKES
I AM WRITING TO WARN YOU OF A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM WITH YOUR REMANUFACTURED BRAKE CALIPER PART # LE5383 PURCHASED FROM A NAPA PARTS DEALER IN ANN ARBOR, MI BY MAIN STREET MOTORS. I HAD TWO OF THESE CALIPERS INSTALLED ON MY 2005 DODGE RAM 1500 PICKUP TRUCK AT MAIN STREET MOTORS ON MAY 18, 2016. THE LEFT FRONT CALIPER FAILED IMMEDIATELY, WITHIN THE FIRST COUPLE OF TIMES I APPLIED THE BRAKES. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT BACK TO MAIN STREET MOTORS BEFORE RUNNING OUT OF BRAKE FLUID AND CRASHING, LUCKILY.
