If you did this yourself then recheck your work otherwise have who ever did it do that. Also check to make sure rear brake caliper pistons were backed off for parking brake. If doing it in front check for a frozen caliper as well as bad brake hoses that pinch internally and keep calipers engaged. And won ' t let them release.
