- JTJackie ThompsonOct 25, 20255.0I came in with battery issues and a different store had told me it was my starter. Johnny did a thorough investigation and was able to fix my battery and recheck and Explained why the starter code would've happened with the lower battery. He took time energy and effort to help and it was so appreciative.

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.
