My mom drove her 05 Aviator for about five miles with the parking brake on. Since then everytime she drives it the driver side rear rotor and wheel get really hot, and there is a terrible what I would call burning smell. Took the caliper and rotor off; the shoes, pads and rotor all look fine. So what could be causing this?
 






have you checked the wheel bearing?
 






Its an 05 with a 50000 mile warranty. Take it back and complain:thumbsup:
