I came into Advance Auto Parts on Monday just before 5 PM, right as Mr. Roz, the store manager, was finishing his shift. Even though he was about to leave for the day, he stayed and went above and beyond to help me figure out the issue with my car. His compassion, professionalism, and dedication really stood out. Excellent customer service and I truly appreciate his help! Thank you Roz.

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.
