Quick facts
- Part: A1 CARDONE 18-5301 brake caliper
- Also called: disc brake caliper
- Fits: 2011-2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee and other vehicles

A sticking caliper can show up as the car pulling to one side under braking, uneven pad wear or fluid leaking at the piston. A binding slide pin or a collapsed brake hose is quick to rule out first: with the engine off, and the wheel off as part of a brake service, look at the pins and the hose before you buy a disc brake caliper. If the caliper is the cause, this one replaces it.
