- TRTom RossSep 8, 20255.0Great people behind the counter. Connor and Marlo helped out with finding the correct belt size for a custom set up. Very knowledgeable and professional thanks guys for your help
- TWTiffany wismanSep 6, 20255.0There are several Advance Auto parts close to me, but I won't go to any other than the main Street Dunedin location. They have always been helpful and professional! The store is always clean, stocked and organized. Patrick provides great customer service always. I went in today because one of my turn signal bulbs was out. Devin went above and beyond to assist me in finding the correct bulb. Though they are not required to installed the bulb, Devon graciously changed it and I was on my way. He was extremely friendly and set my mind at ease as being in an auto parts store is always super intimidating for me. I hope that both Devin and Patrick can be recognized for their excellence and I will continue to give my business to only this location of Advance Auto.. keep up the great work, guys! 🙂

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.
