I've noticed when it is cold(ish) and damp out, the brakes appear to stick for a moment after moving again from a stop. You can hear it break free when it does it, it's kind of unsettling. It's only been doing it recently, the past few weeks or so. Anyone else have this problem? Debating on whether or not it is a problem I need to bring it in for, replicating it will be hard unless it is raining. :/

I'm 90% sure it's on flat surfaces too. Now that you mention it though, I will pay extra attention to if it is mostly on hills. Without having a video, there is a slight metallic clang heard when you let off the brake to get moving. Almost like it is breaking free of the pads(?)

I've definitely noticed this happening on rainy days as well. But after a couple minutes of driving it goes away for me. I always assumed it was normal for that to happen since the brakes are wet
