The Lexus dealer once again (the first instance was in December 2013 at 45,533 miles and required replacement of pads and rotors.) reported during routine maintenance that the rear brake caliper pins were seized and had to be cleaned and lubricated (neither action is a Lexus scheduled preventive maintenance activity.). as in the first instance, it is fortunate that no accident resulted from these seized calipers.
