I would like to thank Alberto for his professionalism and kindness today. He helped me to pick out the correct wiper blades and installed them for me without even asking.

Me atendió un joven que no vestía ropa de la tienda y estaba atrás del counter para atención al cliente, quería que me revisen mi batería y dijo que no funcionaba la máquina y había muy cerca otro empleado que estaba probando una batería sin problema, a este joven incluso no se entendió nada bien su mensaje, el manager debe poner en atención al cliente a personas que quieran y puedan solucionar problemas

These people don't want to work. I saw 3 different employees come into the store before 8am. It was freezing cold today just under 40 degrees. I came to the door at 8am expecting them to open the door. They were nowhere to be seen. Finally at 8:07 freezing and super late to work, I decided to leave. They never opened the door or even came out from the back. Maybe they were chit chatting or having breakfast.

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.
