those bits on a car are called "brakes". When a brake breaks, it's a broken brake and needs to be fixed.

Thank you. That's one of my little pet peeves I see online; that and when people are trying to say lose but type loose.

*alright is the wrong word you meant to use there to rile someone up. "all right" is technically correct, and you'll want to avoid that.
