Systems and methods for reducing transient brake caliper drag in a motor vehicle are provided. The motor vehicle, for example, may include, but is not limited to, an axle, a rotor coupled to the axle, a brake caliper comprising a brake pad configured to engage the rotor, a brake pedal assembly communicatively coupled to the brake caliper, the brake pedal assembly configured to receive user input directing the brake pad to apply a force to the rotor and user input directing the brake pad to disengage the rotor, and a processor coupled to the brake caliper, wherein the processor is configured to determine, after the brake pedal assembly receives user input directing the brake pad to disengage the rotor, the force applied to the rotor, and command the brake caliper to retract the brake pad away from the rotor when the determined force exceeds a predetermined threshold.
