2001 Accord - left rear caliper sticking

    I have a 2001 Accord LX-V6 with 78k miles on it. This past week I
    noticed hot brake smell after my 10 mile drive to work and I noticed
    that the left rear lug nuts were considerably hotter than the ones on
    the right side. A trip to the dealer revealed that the left rear
    caliper had a sticky pin that was not allowing the caliper to release,
    so the pads were dragging on the rotor.

    Is this a common problem with this car?

    I've had all brake work done at this same dealer, which includes one
    prior change on the rears at about 42k miles . . .
