I have a 2001 Grand Cherokee and whenever i apply my brakes, there is a clicking/popping noise coming from my rear passenger brake. There is also a whirling sound whenever i drive. I had brakes put on a couple of months ago and i don't think that is the problem. I had someone look at it and he said that a spring was worn out and it is not doing it's job and is causing the spring to click against the rotor. It's driving me nuts. I'm going to have it looked at today but just wanted to know if anyone else had this problem before. What is the average price to have a rotor turned/replaced by a mechanic (that's what i think the problem is)? Thanks in advance

If you have disc brakes in the rear the only spring in the system is an emergency brake cable return spring. I doubt the rubbing hurt the caliper at all. Have a mechanic check the rear cables and return springs.

If the rotor was not turned right it will cause the click sound u ar hearing also if the new break pads were but on with out anti rattle pads u could be hearing the pads rattle. I have seen this happen many times working at a parts store an as a brake repair service tech. this can also happen on drum brakes all springs should be replaced with each brake job

it could prefer to be the two the brakes are no longer to any extent further freeing, so are in part engaged all of the time, OR the brakes are worn to over ninety%. Brake pads have a compound indoors the perfect 10% which motives the pad to squeal as a demonstration that the pads are wiped out. you need to upward push as much as 1000 miles greater effective interior the previous the rivets located on by ability of employing and score the rotors previous restore. the two way, you go with a save to inspect the brakes.

a new rotor will be about an hour labor. figure about 150 max. i didnt know that cherokees had four wheel disc brakes though. i assumed the rear wheels were drums.

Be careful!!! THIS COULD cause heating at the brakes which could cause the brake fluid to boil and become useless
