- WDWyatt DamronApr 17, 20255.0We were passing through Williamsburg in our new car when 2 warning lights came on. We stopped by this AutoZone to get them scanned, and the very polite younger gentleman was able to scan the car and quickly come up with what the issue was. He also gave us extremely helpful advice and tips on where to go from there. Thank you for your help!

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.
