        It is more then likely its just the pads binding,

        Try another mechanic.I can't imagine how a tie rod would be linked to the brakes.Most likely scenario would be dust buildup (Drum brakes).Worn pads,scored rotor (Disc brakes).

          It's more likely that the brake shoes are wearing away.

            I think tie rod has to do with steering and wheel system. Get another opinion.
