- SFSer FelizMar 30, 20265.0Very nice they quickly hwlp me and installed my new battery.
- MMMichaelJan 8, 20261.0Woman answering phone was very rude like she was put off by me asking a question about a part. She cut me off and asked what she could help me with. That's her job, to answer questions. If she doesn't like it she needs to do something else. I am not taking unnecessary attitude from someone. I just hung up and didn't get my question answered. I will go somewhere else.

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.
