2nd time visiting this location in the last month or so, and I remain a ecstatic about how friendly and knowledgeable the staff are. Like the above and beyond helpful that has become a rarity of these days. This morning Tyla (I think is her name) was amazing when I called and asked questions and Rick helped me like I was part of his family. Thank you for this pleasant experience on a rainy Sunday! Nobody likes to deal with car issues, but being helped by such wonderful folks makes it just that much easier.

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.
