Default Left Rear Brake Caliper

The Rear brake Caliper on the driver side is jammed. there the little piston like rod that retracts and pushes out. is jammed. i noticed this when i took the wheel off yesterday to clean the brake dust on the inside. i tried to nudge it loose but it aint doin anything. Do i need a whole new caliper on that side.

Yes you do that is a common problem with calipers they seize up and ruin your pads and rotors.They arent very expensive for stangs anyways so you should get one before everything gets ruined.
