Had my mechanic replace my rear calipers, and when I got the car, the left rear was STICKING and I had a glowing RED rotor (brand new, unfortunately.) This was a rebuilt caliper from NAPA, which they did exchange. Lesson: Rebuilt does not equal new, so if you save $$$ buying rebuit units, be prepared to return it. Its just so much easier when they are in your neighborhood.... BTW, my new rotors do not seem to have been worse for the wear after the incident!!! CIAO
