- BHBrian HubbellOct 26, 20251.02 times in a row I order something online and get to the store for them to tell me they don't have it. Not only that, but they were common parts for a Chevy 5.3 which is one of the most popular, if not the most popular, engine on the road. What an absolute joke.
- VRVirginia RemingtonAug 11, 20251.0This place needs a new manager. Always single staffed while 2-3 people walking around back and not helping. Placed online order and parts not ready after 30 mins and no parts available when I get here. Wasted my gas and time 30 mins each way.
- JLJusten LewisDec 1, 20235.0Night crew went out of their way to help my father get his battery charged to make it home safe, 20 minutes past close. From one Advance employee to another, thank you. - 8924

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.
