I had such a great experience with Blaine at Advance Auto Parts! He was very helpful, knowledgeable, and patient with me. He took his time to make sure I understood everything and that I was getting exactly what I needed instead of just trying to make a sale. His customer service was definitely 10/10, and you can tell he actually cares about helping his customers. It’s hard to come across good customer service like that nowadays. If you go to Advance Auto Parts and Blaine is working, definitely ask for him! I’ll be back for sure. 😊

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.
