A caliper that sticks or wears out can show up as the car pulling to one side under braking, a wheel that drags or smells hot, or uneven pad wear. These signs can mean the caliper is the cause, though a worn brake hose or a failing brake pad can be behind them too, so find the cause before replacing it.
Fits
The 2006-2018 Toyota RAV4 takes one caliper at the front left. This listing is that one side only; the front right is a separate caliper, and the two front calipers are normally replaced at the same time.
