Brakes problem
1994 Chevy Cavalier 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic @80000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
I have replaces the master cylinder, roaters, caliper, and breaks, and a caliper on the right front break continues to stick. When parts are replaced it works fine for anywhere from a few weeks to a month, then it starts to stick again. What could be causing this to happen?

heres a easy way to find out. when the rf wheel is sticking, open the bleeder screw on rf caliper, if caliper frees up than you have a collapsed brake hose. its not uncommon. the only other possibility would be a misadjusted brake light switch, but both calipers would be sticking. good luck
