Check your wheel bearings
Control arm bushes
Ball joints
And tie rods
Hi my 2002 neon Doge.. when it rains the Leif driver side locks tire..back driver's.. I see others had same thing
Check wheel bearings are not failing or loose. Check that the tyre has been fitted correctly to the rim. There may be a ridge in the tyre just out from the rim edge . Check to see that this is evenly spaced around the rim. Check inside also . This is a guide to see that the tyre is evenly placed on the rim and is not held up on the bead. It causes wobble and because the tyre is not fitted correctly will not have an effective seal between the bead and the rim hence loosing air. Have a tyre shop check

use 3lb sledge on inner edge of rim be careful not to damage rim rubber mallet won't provide enough shock to loosen rust. ps leave one lug nut on so tire won't fly off.

Had this problem a really long time ago. Dad died and his fairly new car sat in the garage for six months. When we tried to get it out of there, it may as well have been welded to the floor. Flat-bedded to my shop, took rear drums off, found nothing, put it back together and it never did it again. Only thing I can think of is that moisture in the air swelled the linings, engaging them. Trying to drag the car till the brakes disengage will cause flat spots on your tires. Beating on drums may cause them to go out of round. Remove drums to make sure nothing else is going on in there and you should be fine.
My Mom still says it was ghosts....

Please let me know if this information is helpful. Positive feedback is appreciated. Thank You!
if you found a leak, was is an air leak or a fluid leak? Since you state the rear brakes were leaking I assume its brake fluid. You must clean away all fluid and have the car securely supported in the air to see were the leak is coming from with someone else pressing on the brake pedal while you watch underneath the area with the problem
