You may need to adjust the cable for your hand brake. The driver's side is too tight and the passenger side is too loose. Best thing to do is drop the hand brake (e-brake) down, loosen the adjuster on the drum, then lift the hand brake until you hear 5 clicks. Then adjust the handbrake cable on both sides until the disk just stops.

Have someone push & release pedal while at wheel with problem. See if it takes a while or slow to release. If yes, have wrench ready on bleeder screw, and try again, if it sticks/holds, crack bleeder screw, if it releases, I'd replace hose.

You might have a sticking caliper, did you inspect the hardware when you changed the pads? Were the rubber boots intact? Is there any chance you got oil or grease on the pads on one side?
SOURCE: What's your problem? passenger rear brake pads are burning
The caliper is not returning or releasing all the way, reason for burning. Clean and lubricate caliper. Light staying on, air in the brake system. It needs to be thourouly bled
