1999 Accord Brakes Sticking
My V6 Accord front passenger side brake is sticking when the car gets up to operating temperature about 10 minutes of driving. I replaced caliper, hose, and pads. Problem still remains. And when I say sticking its not just a little dragging, it will stop the car when I let off the gas. Eventually will not move. Please help if you have ever heard of this issue

When brake is stuck, crack open the bleeder and see if fluid is forcefully ejected.
If not, then a mechanical problem is causing the sticking, suspect caliper pins not installed correctly and/or inadequate lube.
If fluid is ejected, something is trapping pressure in the pax side brake line, perhaps a bit of debris. It might be helpful to do a pump/release bleeding to hopefully eject the plug.
Since problem only affects one wheel, the master cylinder is not the problem.
good luck

If caliper held pressure w/o foot pressure on brake pedal something is trapping fluid in the caliper. It would be normal for brake fluid to spray out if foot pressure is applied.
