Jack front of vehicle up and support and scotch. Have assistant put vehicle in neutral. With vehicle in neutral, try spinning front wheels by hand, if you feel resistance then brakes probably need bleeding.

Inspect the brake hose on it if clogged/collasped-if okay open bleeder screw and compression the caliper piston till its flush put it back together and see what happens-
