1988 Amc Eagle Wagon Problem!

When my Eagle Wagon sits outside overnight in the cold the front wheels lock. The car will not move and the back wheels will burn rubber trying to move it. In warm weather it is NOT a problem. Need information on what may be causing this to happens and suggestions for correction.

Unhappy Re: 1988 Amc Eagle Wagon Problem!

The tempeatures below about 35 degrees or so are what affects it. It is currently in for service with a fluid flush and change for the front differential. It also had the emergency brakes hanging up in the rear axel, so those are being replaced as well. Will have to see what this money pig does when it returns this time.

It sounds like you may have a sticking brake caliper or a frozen wheel bearing. In cold weather, moisture can freeze and cause the brake components to seize. I'd suggest checking the brake calipers, rotors, and wheel bearings for any issues, and consider replacing or lubricating them to prevent freezing.
