2013 Hyundai Elantra. When in reverse what feels like the rear passenger tire locks up as if it hit a curb. Brakes were replaced about 25,000 miles ago but visible brake dust and scraping sound coming from tire. Will move in drive no problem, and when put in neutral would reverse when pushed at first but once I started the vehicle felt like it was hitting a wall again. Thought it was a failed bearing at first but now wonder could it be transmission or some kind of seized caliper? ---

Look for a stuck caliper, or even a failed rubber brake hose on the corner. ---

Pull the ABS fuse and see what happens. ---

Doesn’t this have the separate parking brake in the rotor hat? If so, could be parking brake shoe shifting and jamming up in reverse?
