- GSGarry Samora3 days ago5.0Tyler always, and I mean always making it happen for me. No matter how deep cut the need is, he gots me. You don't go to a tattoo shop and get a tattoo from a guy that don't have tats or the love of art right!? Likewise don't go to a car parts store if the guy doesn't love cars and the intricacies of working on your car. Whether its what I need for the Sixty4 Impala or my Caddy CT6, Tyler's that dude.... 🫡

- AOAlfredo OrtizMay 4, 20265.0had an outstanding experience at Advance Auto Parts in Thornton. The manager personally came out from behind the counter to shake my hand, which set the tone right away. I was greeted with a genuine smile, and every associate I interacted with was knowledgeable, professional, and ready to help. They didn’t just point me in the right direction—they went the extra mile to make sure I had everything I needed to complete my task successfully. It’s rare to find customer service like this anymore, and I truly appreciate the level of care and attention they provided. Thank you to the entire team for making my visit exceptional.

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.
