Rudest employees ive ever came across. I tried asking one where an accessory was as he was stocking shelves. Never got a response. The one at the counter never asked if I needed help I had to start talking to him. Won't be going back in there. And explains why you dont see many consumers cars there anymore.

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.
