Default my brakes froze....and broke...

gotta love the cold weather.

apparently i got some moisture and slush in and all over my left-rear drum, and well, when i moved my car the pads and shoes inside snapped loose.....that was a fun drive considering it was an hour to where i needed to go and get it fixed.

so, $377.00 later, i have my brakes fixed.

this is problem number 2194382948832822 with my car. time for a for sale sign.

How exactly do broken pads and shoes in the rear drum affect driving or braking?

But anyways, that does royally suck!

That has to be a new one. Never heard of that happening before. Brakes get wet all the time.
