My car lights came on as I was driving thru Chicago so I stopped to see if someone at the store could test my car and see what the issue is. Javi greeted me and helped me. He replaced my battery then we found out my alternator was bad. I'm not from here and 5+ hours from home, so he and Paul (his co-worker) called a mechanic who got me in and fixed it. I appreciate they went above and beyond to help me get my car fixed so I could get back on the road. Definitely recommend!

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.
