She's funny, friendly, helpful and knows what she's doing very well. Her name is Santresia! Byron cool as heck too!
- ZZZachDec 10, 20255.0Patrick is an incredible employee and human being. After autozone decided they didn’t want to change my battery, just didn’t feel like it I guess, Patrick rushed to get it done so I could make it to my dad’s heart surgery. He wouldn’t accept a monetary tip, this review is the least I could do. He’s a very knowledgeable parts man and swapped my battery in 5 minutes
- CJCharles JonesOct 11, 20254.0Patrick who was helping someone else ran up to me and advised he would be right with me. He came and would not leave intil my issue was resolved as well as guiding me through potential issues to cross them out.

The difference in cost comes from a variety of things, like the size of the vehicle or any special requirements needed from the battery, i.e. an increased resistant to cold or hot climates. The type of battery also has an affect on the price whether it be a lead/acid, calcium, lithium-ion, deep-cycle.
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.
