- AMAbigayle Montgomery4 days ago5.0Brad is very friendly and helpful. Trying to make sure I get all the way home to KY safely
- KSKenneth StarrApr 15, 20265.0Only parts store around that seems to keep parts in stock.
- SSSteve SweattApr 11, 20265.0I'd like to extend my sincere appreciation to Advance Auto for their employment of Michael Gonzalez who installed a set of ignition coils in a vehicle which I gifted to a dear friend. He not only diagnosed the problem (check engine light was on) but also gave some thirty minutes of his time to facilitate the repair. Exceedingly grateful for him and his extreme generosity.
- TDTravis DavisMar 7, 20265.0Brad WAS FREAKING AWESOME!!!! Definitely went up & beyond with customer service. We are out of towners. My friends vehicle broke down (luckily in walking distance). Brad came down and assessed her battery was pretty much shot. Replaced it, got my friend back up and running in enough time to get ready for her daughter's Miss Teen Alabama Pageant.

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.
