- SBSteve ByceOct 26, 20255.0I have always chosen Advance Auto in Mauldin, South Carolina due to their customer service and the knowledge base of all their employees. I have asked many questions over the years and have always found them to be knowledgeable and helpful.

- SSSteveAug 1, 20255.0Several times this summer, I have purchased a few odds and ends for replacement in my family’s cars, such as large and small windshield sunshades, and a cabin air filter. Every time, I have ordered online for pickup at this store, and the staff could not be nicer when I arrive. Most recently, John W., assisted me for speedy, kind checkout. This auto-parts chain has been a great, consistent source for various, small DIY needs in the past 20 years, and the Mauldin store only reaffirms the correct choice I’ve made for the best service. Keep on rolling!

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.
