- LVLevi VanbeOct 10, 20255.0I go to a lot of parts stores and most people aren't too friendly. I stopped here today and needed to have my battery tested on my 2013 Accord. A young man Christian helped me, this gentleman went far above and beyond in my opinion. He was extremely knowledgeable, sincere and professional. He took the time to explain everything to me and what I would need. He was also very honest which is rare these days and because of this gentleman I will buy my parts at this store. I REALLY hope he is recognized because most people leave reviews just to get a generic response back and the employee never gets the credit. Thank you again Christian for all of your help, I can't thank you enough!! Advanced Auto is very lucky to have him!

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.
