My boyfriend walks in to buy a part for my car and he missed and left his wallet on the counter. Mind you he didn’t leave the store he just walked out to the car. Before he got in the car to leave he realized he didn’t have his wallet. Goes back in to ask about his wallet and they told him they didn’t have it. He threatens to call the police and when the police got there my boyfriend found his wallet out in the parking lot nowhere near where he parked his car which told us that ROBERT which is the manager took his wallet and slung it out into the parking lot. To ask if we will be back?? I think not! Never again. Will be canceling my account with them also because nobody should be treated like that by nobody.

They had everything I was looking for. One of the salesmen was very helpful in tracking down a small oil drain crush washer in the back for me. It's nice to have this level of service in today's online shopping atmosphere.

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.
