I' ve now had this problem with two Durangos, a 2000 and a 2001. After sitting for a few weeks, and then driving in stop and go traffic, the front brake calibers seem to freeze up and the next thing I know the brake is smoking and the brake pads are fried. I'm assuming the problem is that the pistons are sticking.
Any ideas on how to fix this in a couple of hours before heading out on vacation? Help!!!!!!!!
Thanks for all replies!

Wow that's really bad.
I'd probably replace the calipers and pads, rotors if they were screwed up, and bleed all the fluid out and replace the fluid. That's a really messed up problem...
