Great experience today with Malcom. He was very professional and exhibits great customer service. I was turned away by the Rockaway Blvd location and rerouted to this location for service. I will keep my business with this location due to his kindness and customer service.

I had a issue in which I was unfamiliar with and stressed as my car was acting up. Malcome was so helpful. He stayed on the phone with me and until I got to the place he told me what was wrong and what to do. While waiting for him I noticed how helpful he was with others as well. I hope the manager or whoever can see this. MALCOME is a genuine guy who was beyond helpful. He gives me saving grace that there are still kind helpful people out there. I give this place 5 stars because of him. Thanks bro !! #dudewiththebmw

Huge shoutout to Noah at the Brooklyn Advanced Auto Parts! He replaced my battery with incredible patience and integrity. He was honest about my options, didn't try to upsell me, and did a perfect installation. It's rare to find such trustworthy service. Highly recommend asking for him!

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.
