welcome to the forum. Caliper may we dirty and need overhaul. Also fluid may need changing.

Welcome to the forum,also You might want to replace the front rubber brake line.On the inside of the brake hose they disintegrate, which causes the fluid to go thru the line but not return when pedal is pressed. If it releases when car sits and cools off .then this is probably the culprit.Good luck,Bobby
