- WSwegler sejourFeb 21, 20265.0Quick, effective, and friendly
- ALAndre LamarJan 19, 20261.0I’m very disappointed with the AutoZone on Main Street in East Orange. I came in for help with a car battery issue and got little to no guidance. The staff seemed unsure, gave unclear answers, and didn’t inspire confidence at all. Customer service was poor, and I felt like I was wasting my time. This store needs serious improvement in training and overall support.

- PPPatelOct 4, 20251.0The employees did not acknowledge me when I entered the store. And when I was helped, I was asked, "what you want?" It was offensive. The employee could not speak properly and should be disciplined.

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.
