- ZZzebOct 11, 20255.0The guy was nice. Had what I needed. Awkward interaction after I asked if I could use a tool to switch out my tail light. I think the local autozone in my area spoiled me by lending tools when needed.
- SSStumpBustersLLCSep 18, 20255.0These guys are always on the top of their game. Called about an ABS sensor I couldn't find on their website. It was sitting there waiting for me. In and out in under a minute.
- AMAndrew MacIntireJul 18, 20255.0I would like to give a glowing review to a worker by the name of Samuel. Samuel went above and beyond as my car had major issues with the exhaust. He was polite, accommodating, and more than willing to help assist my vehicle’s issue.

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.
