I recently replaced my front brake pads and calipers on my 2001 explorer sport. All the brakes were bled on the completion of the installation. The problem that I am having is when I turn. I notice when I parallel park and the wheel is turned all the way to one side, either left or right that the brakes stick and the car won’t move unless I give it some gas. I also have noticed a soft brake pedal sometimes in this instance as well. Any thoughts?

The front flex hoses are toast or you twisted them when installing the new calipers.
