- EEEsmeraldaOct 16, 20255.0Great customer service! Gary P was super friendly and patient, came out behind the counter to show us the difference between the brands they had for windshield wipers! What made this visit even better they offer free installation and he was fast and efficient and reached out to his coworker for help when he had a bit of struggle instead of turning me away. Liked they were very knowledgeable about their products as well!!

HOW DO BRAKES WORK?
Expand FAQ item
Brakes work by using friction to turn kinetic energy into heat. There are two designs: drum brakes (older), and disc brakes (newer). Both use hydraulic pressure to move a piston outward. In disc brakes, the piston is located inside a caliper that houses brake pads and fits over the rotor. The friction lining on the pads makes contact with the rotor to slow the vehicle. In drum brakes, the piston moves two curved shoes lined with friction material against the inside of the brake drum.
