Arrow brakes

Hi i was wondering if anyone else has suffered from this my rear nearside brake caliper seized and had to have a new one. i had it done at my local honda dealer who told me he has never had one seize before ever and today i have noticed one of my fronts are sticking. this is a 99 s2000 it only gets used on weekends with 31000 on the clock. is it because its under used thanks

nine years of sitting around would make it seize. You can prevent this from happening, by removing the calipers and pushing/turning the pistons in once a year.

It's really uncommon.
