You may need to do an automated ABS bleed. You'll need a tech2 to do this. You'll have to take it to a shop or a dealership.

It is not good if a persons newly changed brake pads are grinding. To stop this, a person needs to change the brake caliper pressure.
Probably has a sticky brake caliper or sticky brake caliper sliders. Who ever replaced the brake pads should have seen that.
Sticky/stuck caliper slides, sticky/stuck caliper piston, collapsed brake hose, pinched brake line,
It looks like a hydraulic clamp. When hydraulic pressure is applied with the brake pedal, the caliper clamps the disc brake pads to the disc brake rotor to stop rotation.

No but, the next time that brake seems stuck open the bleeder on that stuck caliper and see if the caliper releases the pressure. If so you may have a bad brake hose or a pinched brake line that holds pressure.
Assuming this is a 4+4 vehicle, the caliper bolts on to the caliper bracket. The caliper bracket bolts on to the steering knuckle.
take the tire off and then remove the brake caliper remove the brake pads take a c clamp and compress the brake piston replace the pads then put the caliper back on tighten the caliper bolts put the tire back on then turn car on and push on the brakes a couple of times
A c-clamp will work just fine. If it takes a lot of pressure to retract the piston the caliper may need replacement or rebuilding.
how do you change the brake pads on a 2003 S10 BLAZER To change the front pads you need to jack up blazer and pull off wheel.the brake caliper is held on by two hex head bolts.Remove these and gently pry the caliper up off the rotor.You will need a C- clamp to compress the piston back into the caliper ,so when you install the new pads ,the caliper will fit back over the rotor. put the two hex bolts back in ,and your done.
The piston is forced out of the caliper by the pressure of the brake fluid. This pushes the brake pads against the rotor, in turn stopping the vehicle.
