I will check the transmission fluid and the wheels for heat when I drive home today. I just got my tires rotated and balanced about a week ago and I thought they probably would have told me if it was a brake problem. Also, I drove 600 miles home and 600 miles back a few weeks ago and told my Dad I was running low on some kind of fluid but I didn&#039;t know what it was. I can&#039;t remember if he said it was the transmission fluid or the power steering fluid, but either way he filled it up with brake fluid for some reason.... Don&#039;t know if this bit of info helps anyone.</blockquote>
