I've shopped with other parts stores and noticed the parts may have been aftermarket. I bought the same part from here and it was OEM which made my check engine light go off and I'm happy about that.

They have scammed me twice in a week on the free brake promotion. I am so upset that people don’t have a heart to help anyone anymore. Like people work hard for their money to get scammed.

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.
