The latest in slotted rotor design! Or...

The customer said there was some brake noise but didn't stop driving the car until the brakes gave out 100% (due to fluid loss from the destroyed caliper).

The pad must look awesome too! Nice effort!

Could a coat hanger have caused this?

Absolutely, as long as it was properly placed.

Apperantly some drivers of new cars also don't realize they have no brakes
