- DDDani Larson (Dani)Jan 4, 20265.0Sam was so helpful and kind. I live out of state and was trying to change my sister's headlights for her. Sam ensured I had the tools I need, and stopped herself before explaining how to use the tool. She *asked* if I knew how to use it. I seriously cannot stress the impact of this question. As a woman, I am constantly dealing with condescending male employees whenever I go to a hardware or auto parts store. Sam was wanting to help me use the tool correctly while also realizing I may already know how to use it. Truly exceptional service! Sam, you're the best! :)
- RDRichard DuneJan 3, 20265.0Helpful product knowledge
- EVErik VDec 17, 20255.0I just wanted to give a shout out to Sam at this store. I’ve never worked with anyone so helpful and so caring at any store (or even on the phone for that matter) she cares about her customers and goes above and beyond to make sure I got the part I needed.
- JKJudy KotleszkaDec 9, 20255.0Sam is the best! Always helpful and nice.
- NGNatalya GushchinDec 7, 20255.0Me and my husband went to see if they sell a battery for my keys for my vehicle. When we walked in to the store a nice lady greeted us and offered to help. On the receipt her name was Sam. She was able to get the new battery and had replaced it for us. In the process I asked her if they can check the engine light and she said they do it. So after she changed the battery she took the tool went outside with us and checked why the engine light is on in my vehicle. She was above and beyond so helpful and offered amazing service! Thank you so much! 😊

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.
