- RCRick CarpenterSep 25, 20255.0First and foremost the 2 gentlemen at your store, Rick and his assistant go above and beyond their duties to help and to give the best service to their customers. My Denali started giving me trouble when my wife and I went shopping at Sam’s . We then drove to Advance Auto on Ne Hope where Rick and his assistant helped get my SUV back to running perfect again. If it weren’t for the gentlemen at this store I would probably be stranded on the side of I-85 in this storm tonight. But because of Advance Auto associates my SUV WAS RESTORED back to working condition and we made it home safely.

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.
