Default brakes

My brother took the z in for it pulling to the right under braking alignment did fix it a little bit but i found the culprit. the slider pin on the passenger side has froze to the bracket. Help any ideas.

If you can't pound it out and clean up/out the hole (and install a replacement pin), you'll need to go to the dealer and get a Pad Abutment Bracket and install a fresh one with at least one new pin, reuse your boots (if they are not cracked) and put it back together. I've seen some of them that are pretty stuck (wouldn't budge with a 3 lb hammer), and I've seen some come out with a few taps.

Good luck!
