I can honestly see why this parking lot is always empty. Customer service here sucks. Two employees here and no greeting when I came in. Only 1 other person in there. Never offered to help me find what I needed (and I was obviously looking around). Finally found it. Stood in line behind the one other person looking something up and taking a bit. Stood in line for a good 3 or 4 minutes. All while the other employee was standing at the other register (behind the screen so I didn't see him). Do you think the one clerk could have told the other that I was waiting and offer to help? No. Apparently that was too much work. I finally heard him cough and then walked around and saw him. This isn't the 1st time I've experienced horrible customer service. But I didn't want to have to cross the road in getting off work traffic. Guess next time ill just have to cross traffic.

My wife took one of our vehicles there to have the check engine light looked at. All she wanted was for a code reader to be plugged in to know what the problem was. The employee who was watching tv on his phone and eating Pringles was reluctant to help and was rude the entire time helping. This was our first time going here and our last.

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.
