Always a great experience here. Store is always filled with product and I, knock on wood, havent had to go elsewhere for the things I need. Staff is always friendly and always greets me when I walk in, unlike O'Reilly and other stores in the area. Will definitely keep coming back!

I bought light bulbs for a work truck, given the wrong parts, it did take me 2 months to get back there because I do not use the truck. They would not honor my return or even swap it or for the right bulbs. I was given the wrong bulbs to begin with. This was my go to part store, not anymore. See, if a manager reaches out spanish guy at the store was very unmotivated, didn't even look like he wanted to be in that store. Maybe a manager will reach out to me about this issue. I was in the store, August.

Was given the wrong part and told then I couldn't return it. Because I bought it 2 months ago but it was not used. They had the purchase in their system. Poor poor customer service, especially when you're dealing with a commercial customer. The Spanish guy at the desk was very much unmotivated.8/20/25 1:30pm Napa honors returns on unused items, especially when you given the wrong part, not the customer's fault. I'll let you know if a manager contacts me about this issue.

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.
