Fui a comprar anti freeze para mi vehiculo ya que se estaba sobre calentando y Elisabeth salio a verificar que esa era la razón por la cual mi vehiculo no estaba funcionando y se dio cuenta que el abanico era el que no estaba funcionando y esa era la razón la cual el vehiculo estaba perdiendo el coolant. Gracias a ella pude ir a un mecánico para arreglar lo que de verdad tenía mi vehiculo fue muy amable.

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.
