- ZJZakina JuddAug 20, 20255.0Shout out to Advance Auto parts on Beal parkway. Mr Will was so patient with me when asking all the questions and helped me resolve a DR LIGHT issue. Thank you again you were awesome🙂🙂
- RRRolveAug 4, 20251.0I ordered some discs for my vehicle, after installing them I had a problem because the caliper was hitting, I removed them and it turns out that the discs they gave me were bigger, they were practically for another vehicle, I tried to get my money back but they told me that they couldn't do that since I made the purchase online, it was disappointing since I lost money and had to buy another set at a different store, I will definitely never buy from this store again, they did not accept a mistake they made by giving me the wrong part and with a different number than the one I ordered in the system
- TSThanatcha SomprasertsakJul 16, 20255.0I had a great experience here. I just came to check the battery and ended up buying a new one. Will was very helpful and changed the battery for me. Thank you so much!
- DGDerek GrimJul 14, 20255.0Friendly knowledgeable people I was looking for a locking gas cap, they had it in stock, thanks for the assistance.

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.
