initially, the brakes on the front passenger side quit working i surmised that it was my caliper that failed but i had someone do some brake work before on the passenger side. they replaced my pads and my caliper the brakes on the driver side works fine i then thought that perhaps they did not bleed the brakes properly so i bled them that was not the problem because when unloosening the bolt on the caliper fluid ran out i had someone apply pressure to the brakes and hold them down to make sure that all the air was out of the system. i then went to purchase a caliper and installed it on the vehicle but now the problem is that the brakes stick and the caliper will not retract the caliper will only be applied after you pump the brake perhaps 30 or 40 times.

The brake hose could have collasped inside and acting like a one way check valve check it-
