I went in today around 5 PM. The cashier was trying to be helpful, but the shift lead/manager was extremely uncooperative. I tried returning a car paint wax to exchange it for another one, and she insisted it was a clearance item even though my receipt clearly showed I paid full price. The product was already opened when I bought it, yet she tried to argue that I had opened it and couldn’t do anything with it, that I had to keep it. Very unprofessional. This store’s management definitely doesn’t leave a good impression.

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.
