Any advice on the caliper problem. The inner piston being stuck or restricted.

Do you have ABS Brakes? The idea of the ABS Brakes is to prevent a skid. So what ever wheels the ABS system controls has to have a Sensor and there is also somesort of Rotor that the Sensor picks up on.
Unless the Caliper has come out too far what most often causes sticking is rusty muck keeping the Piston from returning. Pulling out the Caliper/s cleaning it out and Replacing the Seals and Boot/s is most often the Cure.
Ounce in a while the Caliper or the Piston is in such a bad condition due to rust they cannot be reused and expected to function or last long.
