- MHMatt HochNov 8, 20255.0I was on vacation and 800 miles from home. I left a local store and got a lot of weird lights on the dash. I drove to a car repair shop located 1 row over and they told me they were too busy and suggested I drive to Jacksonville. I then remembered there was an Advance Auto over on 8th st. Jose greeted me and spent the next hour with me. We tested the battery and it had died. Jose showed me several options and I picked the right one for my budget. He then used a scanner to see if the error codes had cleared and they did not. The one fluid was low so Jose replaced that too. He then told me to drive around the island for 20 minutes to see if the dash lights cleared but to stay close the shop in case I needed him. Sure enough, about 15 minutes later all of my lights went back to normal. I safely drove 800 miles home. I am very grateful for Jose and the patience he had.

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.
