    Caliper sticking sounds like. If it happens again. Back up and see if it fixes it. Sounds like the problem

    This happened to me in the rain, I could smell it from the cab...caliper locked up and made the rim mad hot...waited 30 mins till I could touch the rim, then changed the caliper, pads and rotor cause it warped

    this is a VERY common issue with Ford. This has happened three times on my truck. random instances. I eventually replaced the caliper. And just a few days ago it happened to one of our F-450 ambulances. Its always the right front side too, weird. I'm beginning to think its hose line collapse. Steel braided hose lines FTW
