- ALAshley LandryAug 16, 20255.0What a Godsend Mr. Rick is. On vacation and my sun roof wouldn’t go back down. When GMC wouldn’t help me I drove here to figure out how to tarp my car and just was going to figure out another way until he came out and helped me get it closed so I can enjoy the rest of my wellness trip. What a standup guy! Thank you so very much!

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.
