- SLSue LegnerJan 16, 20265.0My skid plate fell down and was dragging under my car while driving on the interstate. I was able to get back to Peru and pulled into Advanced Auto. Despite the cold and wet conditions Mark got under my car to see if he could assist. I really appreciated his professionalism and kindness.

- JJJosh JohnsonSep 24, 20255.0John is so wonderfully kind and helpful. Every time I've come up this way N stopped there. The guy is consistent. And makes it pleasurable. Willing to even dig through bunches of relays in effort to match my need. Great guy.

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.
