OUTSTANDING! The gentlemen that helped me find the right battery for my Ram pickup truck today, then install it on the spot, was outstanding. This was my 1st interaction with Will, and my 1st time at the Fort Walton Beach, Fl. location. This gentlemen named Will, greeted me at the door with absolute professionalism, and an accommodating demeanor. I have been shoping at Advanced Auto Part stores since I can remember. I certainly do not remember, ever being extended this positive of an experience, and craftsmanship. Thanks! Will
You can count on my business for life...

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.
