- GMGracies MamaSep 9, 20255.0I have been having trouble with my car recently. Thought it could be the battery. I pulled into the closest Advance Auto but there was no place to park so I decided to go to the next one. I wanted to donate clothing so I decided to do that first and pulled into where the donation drops are. I didn't realize there was an Advance Auto next door at 40 Hampton House Road in Newton, NJ. I asked if they could scan my battery. The name on the receipt is James Edsall. He was so helpful. He scanned my battery and my starter and alternator. Explained EVERYTHING and showed me the computer results. He answered all of my questions to the best of his knowledge. Didn't pressure me. He was TOTAL customer service and beyond. I've been having some difficulties recently and I am so thankful that I bypassed two Advace Autos and met this man. I work in retail also and know it can be difficult. This associate should be commended on his patience, knowledge and being a complete professional.

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.
