Spray water on it, do not use your hands.

It is a lesson you won't forget but who, beside me of course, needs to learn it the hard way.
If it was really hot you may not want to spray water on it as it as it might get warped. But if it got that hot fast the pad would not last long. I think we can forget the rubbing brake pad.
Sometimes if the steering wheel is out a spline then it may feel that you are always steering a little one way or another. Other than that I have to say alignment if it's not a fault caused by a bad part.
