Uneven Pad Wear

Uneven Pad Wear
I just did my pads and rotors all around. My right rear pad isn't wearing on the whole rotor. Only the upper half is getting rubbed by the pad. I pulled my e-brake a little to try and seat it, i did notice that it did rub some of the bottom half too. Anyone experienced this? Am I looking at a new caliper? Thanks

Anyway..
If your rotors were warped at all, that can cause uneven pad wear, so can a caliper not functioning properly. Keep an eye on the new set of pads/rotors. Take the wheel off in a couple months and see how they are wearing.

good call on the slider pins. the pads and rotors are completely new all around. this is the only wheel thats wearing strange. So the caliper isn't very suspect? haynes manual said to replace slider pins at every pad interval, i didn't.

I would say a break caliper service and check the break pistons for sticking
