Went in two weeks ago because I needed to get a jumpstart twice in one day. I had them check the battery. I was told the battery was all great. Must be something wrong with the electrical. Take it to the dealership and paid for diagnostics. Only for them to tell me, I had a very bad battery. Now I’m out of $194.00. Never going to that location ever again.

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.
