Default Brake pedal sticking

Hey what’s up CL, so lately my brake pedal has been getting stuck, I’ll take my foot off and I either have to manually pull it out with my other foot, or it’ll come back out eventually, I have no brake line leaks or anything and car only 111k, brake fluid is pretty dark. Master cylinder? Brakes need to bled? Any advise would help

Clean your caliper bolt and grease it well. Since u r there, clean all calipers well. Might as well bleed the brakes and have new fluid, since you have ur miles. Test brakes. Enjoy a cold one.

When's the last time the fluids were changed? Are you sure the MBC is even functioning, should prime itself and build pressure to bring pedal back up? With ignition on, step on the brake pedals 8 times within 10 seconds. should beep for about 5 seconds.
