When braking heard a grinding noise. Vehicle was taken to the dealer, who determined that rear pistons were stuck and engaged the rear brakes. Rear calipers and rotors were replaced. It was not known how long the vehicle was in this condition because there was no warning of this problem besides the noise.

Brake pedal goes completely to floor when depressed. Makes noise. Problem is consistant. Vibrates badly. The 1st time, dealer found no problem. The 2nd time had rotors turned due to warping or out of round. Still problem of pedal to floor & noise exists.
