If the vehicle pulls to one side or the other, it can indicate a sticky caliper. And if the inner pad, for example, is worn down and the others aren't. That would also indicate a sticky caliper. Best thing to do is take apart the brakes and clean all surfaces, make sure the caliper pins are clean and lubricated and the calipers slide freely. If the caliper can not slide freely, then it will stick causing pulling and premature brake wear.
