Default brake problem after lowering

hey guys,

i just got my car lowered n i was driving around when i felt my car being sluggish. I pulled over n noticed the brakes smelled funny.so when i put the car back into drive n jus released the brake pedal the car was going but it was hesitating, like the brakes were sticking. also when i reverse it makes a horrible screeching sound. i called the shop and they said to bring it back in the morning. anyone ever have this happen to them or know whats going on?

thanks in advance

Moved to brakes section

Never had that happen before. Possible a brake cable or hose is
kinked/ pinched & keeping the brake applied. Leaning more twords
a parking brake cable.
