Check the bolts that hold the caliper to the a-arm. One of them might be missing.

Take off the hub and spray both sides with brake cleaner. DO NOT USE WD-40!! Mine did that and that fixed them.

It is caused by excess brake dust in the drum. If they were wet then the pads wore faster when used and there is more dust in there. Spray the inside with brake cleaner and you'll be good. Or just ignore it and it will eventually go away.

Check where the cable meets the drum, you may have a broken part there.
