I had one in the rear wear out one pad unevenly once. Nothing I'd call a failure, just normal PM.

Re: Caliper Failure(s)
I had to have both front calipers rebuilt when I bought my SVX.
Does that count or not? BTW, My drivers side was worse of the two. |

Re: Caliper Failure(s)
I replaced both of my rear calipers, but only because the ones on the car looked very rusty and I found a really great price on new ones. They were working fine.

Re: Caliper Failure(s)
By now the ancient rubber piston seals/boots on most every SVX are gone and should be replaced. They were shot on my '92 back in 2001 when the car had about 110k on it.
