Chloe, saved my Day. I had an alternator purchased a year ago and the Brian in Cedar Hill told me the machine to check it was Down. So He then said its not under warranty. So I purchased it and Didn't feel he was competent, so I went to the Desoto store and Chloe was very friendly day and Knowledgeable. She should be trainer for all new employees.

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.
