Rear Passenger Wheel Seized!!

Hey my rear passenger wheel is seized, the car has been sitting over the winter and the "brake lamp" light comes on when i through it in drive. I took the tire off and looked at the disc and caliper and there kinda rusty. I tired braking it loose but I cant seem to get it to move. Anybody have any ideas as to what I should do to get the damn thing turning? Thx -J

no lol thats the first thing i checked. normally i woulda ran it up a curb to try to crack it free but i put a molded body kit on it so i cant do that. maybe ill try and use a torch and see if that'll work, looks like i may need to replace the discs and calipers anyways.....

Mine did that a couple years ago. I had to get a new caliper.

wow..my rear passenger caliper also was all rusty and seized. Here's a pic of it..does yours look like this? Don't ask me how they got this way, they just started crapping out on me.




I had to replace it, and just replaced my drivers side as well, along with new rotors and pads.
