Hi ,
If all brakes have locked on then its the power brake booster and master cylinder problem so go the foot pedal and push it down with out starting the engine [IS THE PEDAL HARD ] if yes then do the same again with engine going, dose the pedal go down farther, if yes
then pump it 3 times if still goes down then the booster is ok and you have to go to the brake line block by following the small brake pipe from the master cylinder to the block connections undo the one to the rear brakes first [small metal pipe from the back of car]half turn only then if fluid comes out tighten it up then do the same to both front brake pipes and do them up tight again then test it by either pushing or start and drive .
If it sticks again then take to garage .
Dont play anymore.

I just changed the brakes on my 2010 tundra and now they are sticking what can I do to fix this??

I assume they are disc brakes your having the problem with.It is more than likely the disc brake calipers,or brake hoses.when the brake caliper locks down and wont release,brake the bleeder screw loose on the brake caliper,if the brake caliper releases then the problem will be the brake hose.If the brake caliper does not release,then it is the brake caliper that is the problem.

WHY DO BRAKES GRAB BUT MOT RELEASE ALL THE WAY ON 2004 NISSAN TITAN

Which wheel(s) are not releasing? Could be debris in the wheel cylinder(s) partially blocking the return fluid (drum brakes) or a defective wheel cylinder or cylinders or even defective calipers (disc brakes).

I have a 96 isuzu rodeo,3.2 and the brakes will lock up on their own, gradually then it takes about 15 minutes for them to release, any thoughts?

this could be caused by a few things, first you need to jack the truck up you will need all 4 wheels off the ground, put the transmission in neutral and have some one get in the truck and wile turning each wheel have the person in the truck push the brake pedal the wheel should stop instantly then have the person release the brake the brake should release instantly,( do this to each wheel ) if all brakes remain locked ( wont release instantly ) then replace the master cylinder if the both rear brakes wont release instantly replace the brake hose from the frame to the rear differential, if the both front brakes wont release replace master cylinder, if only one front brake wont release open the bleeder on that brake caliper if the wheel releases replace the caliper hose if the brake still wont release with the bleeder open replace the caliper, you should replace the caliper and brake hoses as a pair.

Replaced calliper still sticks but i open bleeder nut fluid comes out and it releases

has to be a colapsed hose.
try loosening at line to hose connection,
then loosen at caliper to hose,
if it releases at line to hose the problem is before, but most likely it wont untill you release at caliper if so replace hose

91 Miata. All four brakes will not release very little pedal movement.

If the car has sat for a long period of time the calipers can be seized and not allowing brakes to release properly. If they are siezed it's best to have them replaced.
