new brakes? old brakes? oem brakes? aftermarket brakes?

Could be just what it sounds like. I had my right front caliper fail on my '06 about 2 years ago. Notice that the front brake was getting really hot and making noise...had to replace the caliper (of course also did pads/rotors as they were trashed).

Old stock breaks. Just had them checked (before this issue) and my mechanic said they looked fine and had some life left on them.

Have your alignment checked. My brother's Explorer was pulling to the right under braking which seemed to be signs of sticking brakes. Turned out the lower control arm bolt had worked loose and was castering the steering under braking.
