Could be numerous things. The rotor could be warped causing it to grab on the pads or there could be a bad brake hose on the caliper causing the pads to not release or the caliper it self could be bad and not releasing. I would suggest a rebuild on the front brakes turning the rotors and replacing the brake lines first. An inspection of the caliper may reveal it locking up and not releasing. let us know and thanks Curt
