- BPBenjamin PosnerFeb 1, 20265.0I was there today for a while because of a small issue that turned out to be much worse than I thought. The employees inside were great and willing to help me diagnose the issue. Not sure their names but the two cars outside were a Tesla and a g35 or 37. Nice people. Will be going back

- RSRaymond SerraOct 31, 20255.0The staff at the North Haven store are second to none! In a day where the average parts person knows nothing about automotive industry, these guys do.
- CHCrystal HamerSep 27, 20255.0On Sept. 12, 2025, I stopped at your store for assistance with putting oil in my car. I have a slow leak somewhere and noticed that my car was driving funny. I asked Darien (Dare) if he could show me how to check my oil. He was kind, patient, professional and personable. He not only showed me how to check my oil, he ended up checking it for me and told me exactly how much oil I needed. I appreciate Dare’s kindness and 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.
