- CSClaire Scavone2 days ago1.0INCOMPETENT, DONT LET THEM NEAR YOUR CAR! Had to get new windshield wipers and so was glad to have them replaced by someone more knowledgeable than me. Except this place has employees who replaced my front windshield wipers poorly and said to me they would break the back wiper if they tried any harder. Had to go to the auto parts on Clearwater where they had to replace BOTH front windshield wipers because of the horrid job done by these employees. Please never let these people here touch your car. Ever

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.
