Greetings,
I wanted to get some advice before I go any further with my car.
The other day when I started the car and attempted to back it out of the garage, it appeared that the brakes were stuck.
When I put the car in neutral or reverse or first, I got no movement. So shifting the gears was no problem. I also noticed that the shifter levers were in the position they should be when I shifted gears. The parking brake was also off. So my gut feel is that something is going on with the rear brakes.
This may or may not be of value to know. But prior to parking the gar in the garage I had made a round trip from Maryland to Pennsylvania (about 250 miles). On the way back to Maryland, it was raining cats and dogs for 2 hours. So I was wondering if the severe rain had anything to do with the brakes locking up.
If anyone has any ideas about this, please let me know. I would prefer to resolve this on my own as opposed to having the car towed to the shop since I need to clean up some current debt due to the recent purchase of another car.
Thanks in advance!
