Rebuild the caliper (pull, press out piston, disconnect lines, leave in brake fluid overnight and then clean with steel wool). Likely it is dragging on one side from dust/grime build up. While servicing, have this rotor turned, as it is likely coned from odd application.

Don't bother.
Buy a reman caliper on Rockauto.com for under $40 (plus core) and just swap the caliper out and bleed that brake. Local Parts stores might have them too but unsure of the cost. The rear calipers were used on a few Nissan products, so that's why costs are low (relatively speaking)
Seized rear calipers are common on these cars. Either the slide pins size, or the piston rusts out and seizes.
I've replaced both rear calipers on my car. It's just quicker

If brakes were done at the dealership, just take it back. They have to warranty their own work. But most likely is bad caliper.

I would, except I bought the car in Kansas City and I don't have the time to drive 500 or so miles back there. Besides, if they didn't do it right the first time, why would they do it right a second time? Easier to get a caliper and pressure bleeder and fix it myself in an afternoon.
