I have recently(5 days back) done break service(Front & Back) for may car. Break pads & rotors are replaced in front. Break shoes in rear. Spark plugs changed, air filter, fuel filter, gas filter complete 90k service. I hav etwo problem it make noise while I stop on taffic signal & then start moving slowely(just releasing break slowly). The secnod problem happened yesterday, I stopped at signal, when I allowed to go(green light), car did not move, even after pressing gas padal & Car have taken almost 2 minutes(another red & green signal) to move. Please let me know what is wrong, I am really worried after spending 600$ & even my wife & a 2 month old baby was there with me in car.

Sounds like the barkes are dragging could be caused by weak or broken retracting springs on drum brakes, a jammed or corroded caliper piston, a floating caliper with badly corroded mounting pins or bushings (uneven pad wear between the inner and outer pads is a clue here), overextended drum brake self-adjusters or a sticky or frozen emergency brake cable.
