It definitely sounds like a caliper that is not releasing properly or a brake flex hose that is deteriorating on the inside. Had a nissan xtrail that had a bad hose...very difficult to diagnose. A little flap of rubber peels off partially inside the hose letting fluid get to the caliper but when you release the brake pedal not all the fluid goes back because the flap creates an obstruction. This means the caliper is still squeezing causing pulling to one side and vibration as well. Strange issue but it does happen.
