- CDCalvin’s DaughterFeb 24, 20265.0I must’ve called at least six times, confused and frantic, trying to get my car fixed. Prestin and Chris were very helpful. They figured it out, and I will continue to support this location because of the amazing customer service and support I get when I shop here.
- AWArnesha WilliamsJan 16, 20265.0Mike at the Collinsville location was more than helpful and extremely communicative. I had a lady helping with a battery replacement at the counter. Mike took on the installation and removal as it is very cold and wet out. Mike help remove the foam and assist with the reinsert after (it helps I cleaned out the trunk before hand too.) Install was fast and efficient!!!!!

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.
