Advanced Auto associate, Christopher tested my battery and alternator today. They both checked out okay, and my check charge system light went off. Not sure what happened, but thanks anyway!

She guided me through every step of the process with patience and clarity, making what could’ve been a stressful situation feel completely manageable.
Her knowledge and dedication stood out—Liza went above and beyond to ensure I understood all my options and felt confident in my decisions. You can tell she truly cares about helping people and takes pride in doing her job well. I couldn’t have asked for better service!

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.
