    1994 honda accord EX - I removed the left rear caliper and noticed that one
    half of the inner pad was glazed and the other half was brand new. Could
    this indicate a bad caliper.

    Check the pins that hold the caliper to the caliper bracket. The caliper
    should move easily in the bracket. If it does not, the pins are probably
    rusted in place. Replace the pins and rubber boots for the pins. Clean the
    holes for the pins thoughroughly, removing all rust and dirt. Be sure to
    liberally coat the new pins with silicone grease or anti-sieze paste to keep
    them from sticking.

    YMMV
