- GEguy emmonsOct 26, 20255.0The East Main location is the best in Columbus, OH. Staff are helpful and knowledgeable. See Kevin for outstanding customer service!
- BLBen LongOct 3, 20253.0The employees aren't that bad here. I do have a problem that there seems to be the same vehicle working on different cars in the parking lot and that car seems to set there all day. I came in tonight and this same guy had his music just as loud as he could. The employees must have alot of patients putting up with this guy. I would think he is a lawsuit waiting to happen myself though.

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.
