The engine oil light came on and I drove straight to Advanced Auto Parts for help. Tom went above and beyond to test and help me refill the oil. I also needed wipers and Gaizka replaced them for me! Fabio is leading a fantastic team at the Dover store and I am grateful the exceptional service. I will certainly be back.

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.
