- DMDaniel MontagnaNov 11, 20255.0Had battery I needed and replaced insight for free. Thank you!!
- TBT BradleyOct 12, 20251.0Sunday, 10/12/2025. Its 10:15 AM. THIS store is still not open. Someone must have had a hell of a good Saturday night. Dozens of customers, waiting and leaving because no one is here. Then when someone slowed up they stated that it will be another 1/2 before they will unlock the doors. TIME TO GER SOME REAL EMPLOYEES THAT ACTUALLY WORK!
- HCHeather ChaneyOct 8, 20255.0Eddie was extremely helpful. I ran out of oil just before attending a big event and I dropped into the store for more oil and he was super helpful with picking out and installing it for me since I was all dressed up for the event. Great customer service. Thank you eddie!!
- CNCody’s NationOct 7, 20251.0So let me get straight to it. I took my 2018 Ford Focus to this location to have them put in a battery that I had bought from another one of your chain stores. The guy that was working late on basically told me they couldn’t do it because their system says they weren’t authorized. Due to them having to remove my air filter and other stuff to put the battery in. That’s all B.S. Cause I have NEVER had to get all that removed to simply put my battery in my car. I took my car to auto zone right up the street and guess what? The guy put it in JUST FINE. Heck the man at the auto zone even told me this location tends to be lazy QUITE a bit. I’m not upset with the kid that was out there that was going to put it in. It was the other guy that was working with him. Lazy, and unprofessional. Consider himself lucky I didn’t drive back up there and embarrass him in front of other customers. Cause at least I know what professionalism looks like. Absolute pathetic display of worksmanship.

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.
