Is the Mazda CX-5 rear brake caliper always a problem?
Yes. The brake caliper can develop issues, especially when the brake pads become too thin after prolonged use. When this happens, excessive pressure builds up inside the rotor when the parking brake is engaged.
This is a common issue we often see on the CX-5. Replacing the brake pads earlier can help maintain the braking system in good condition and prevent caliper problems.
