Front brakes lock up

My front brakes lock up and the pedal will not go down. The pads brun. I have replace rotor pads and calibers, but still have the same problem.

Stuck piston(s) maybe?

I don't know if the booster would hold the line pressure that much to cause the brakes to lock up?

ell, I had it happen to my 2000. A guy on here just had it happen to his second gen. What was happening in my case is that the brakes would start to gradually apply themselves until the front locked. I cant clearly remember (it was 8 years ago), but it might have been the brake booster. The guy on here that had the same thing happen said he took it to the dealer and thats what they told him.
