- CMCheri Moffitt2 days ago5.0Always great service: professional, helpful, friendly, & knowledgeable.
- KDKrysta DotsonNov 1, 20255.0Went to Advanced last week and was quickly greeted and assisted with a new battery. The neighboring competitors would not replace my battery due to having to take the filter off to get to it but the gentleman working was so polite and acted like it was his privilege to help me. His name was Mike and I really do appreciate the time he took out to help. He is an asset to the crew and I will be a returning customer because of him solely!

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.
