"... A worn rear brake shoe on one side can very often be caused by a
sticking
parking brake cable (the short one between the wheel and the main
cable). Check them out for proper operation..."
Or a brake hose with the inner liner coming loose... acts like a check
valve: allows brake fluid, upon brake application, to travel to the wheel
cylinder, but, upon pedal release, little or no fluid can travel back towards the
master cylinder. The result is the shoes on the affected wheel never fully
release. There is no way to tell if a hose has internally failed by simply looking
a the hose.
