i put new brakes on my car last week and every since then it has been making a rubbing noise whenever i back up. it only does it after i have had the parking brake on usually, not if i am just backing into a space after driving already. its like the caliper is sticking or something, anybody else had this problem?

your brake pads have been installed incorrectly
remove tire
check them
reinstall if needs be
you will PROBABLY need new pads.
