ok guys I'm posting this from a cell so quick question I took a trip to Texas from Colorado I'm currently at a gathering with my inlaws but when we got here there was smoke coming from one of myrear brakes not sure if it was due to driving since my licence is currently under suspension but I drove it around a parking lot and it felt fine and everything looked good should I ignore that smoke or should I find a shop to check it out oh and by the way I'm using the duralast gold brakes any suggestions?

wondering what your licence being suspended has anything to do with hot breaks... i doubt he e-brake was engauged as it would probably be beeping something real annoying at you if that was the case.. did you recently service your brakes? did you notice anything (smell) on the road trip or just when you arrived to TX?

Possibly dirty or worn guide pins causing that caliper to stick.
