Why does front drivers side brake stick on your Ford F-250 superduty?

There are many things that can make a caliper stick, the piston can corrode and become partially seized in the bore so it cannot retract when the pedal is released. This causes the brake pads to contantly wear on the rotor. Also the slider pins or guides for the pads can become seized with rust. When changing pads always make sure the mounting pins/bolts are lubricated with a high temp brake lube, and make sure the piston will push easily back into its bore. check for brake fluid seeping around boot on piston. Also if a vehicle is used for heavy duty work or are exposed to oil and grease the pads can become overheated and crack or fall apart, this can cause a brake to stick as well.

How do you change the front brake rotor of Dodge Caravan 99 you took out the brake pads but rotor is stick and does not come off?
dodge caravan front brake rotors should come off after removing the brake caliper. first check for any hardware that may hold the rotor in place, then hit the rotor with a hammer, in between the wheel mounting studs. (not on the area where the brake pads make contact. this should knock the rotor loose. good luck.

Rear brakes grab more than front and even stick sometimes on your 1996 Pontiac sunfire?
There could be several reasons. The ones that come to mind are;Your front brakes are shot and the rears are doing all the work. This probably means it's time for a 4 wheel brake job.The rear brakes are shot and have damaged the drums. This can make them stick sometimes.The rear calipers are old or damaged and need to be replaced.The upshot here is that you have a brake problem. Brake problems are a bad thing. If I were you, I'd get the car to my mechanic or a brake shop as soon as is possible. This could develop into a serious situation. PLEASE! Take this seriously!
