I stopped in Advanced Auto Parts on Alger Road in distress and needing help. My oil light was on and I had a full day of driving ahead of me. I had no clue how to check my oil or what kind of oil my car needed. I was greeted by TONY and he was the most patient, helpful and caring person. He not only helped me but he educated me on how to check and replenish my oil. Tony went above and beyond for me, helping me get back on the road!! Not only did was he friendly, knowledgeable and professional but he genuinely cared. I wish there were more “Tony’s” in this world !! Thank you, I am very grateful.

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.
