My uncle changed the wheel bearing in my mom's vehicle listed above. It was the driver side rear. Now the rotor is rubbing the brake pad bracket on the inside. I cannot figure out how or why. Thank you.

Something must not be together correctly, or something is bent. Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone, that way I can tell for sure what's going on?
