Shane Rowe was an absolute lifesaver after I had to jump my car when the battery died. He made sure they had a battery for my car and then he made sure that I actually needed a new battery before I purchased it. Shane installed the new battery while making sure I was safe, it was 7:30 at night in a not so nice neighborhood, but he got me back on the road.

I stopped by Advance Auto Parts because my brake light went out, and Shane Rowe was amazing! He told me exactly what I needed, so I went and ordered the part. When I came back, he installed it for me and even took the time to teach me a few things. He was super helpful, friendly, and full of great advice. If you ever come to Advance Auto Parts and run into Shane, you won’t regret the interaction, he’s great at what he does, and I really appreciate his help! THANKS SHANE!!

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.
