    Left rear brake sensor shows signs of rubbing against something. What is the problem?

    There is no such thing as a brake sensor.

    I assume you are looking at the left rear speed sensor. It reads the tone ring inside the hub assembly. The cause is usually a defective or worn out wheel bearing.

    How the hell does a wheel speed sensor rub against something?

    See the exposed metal on tip. The sensor has a plastic exterior that has been rubbing away.
