- EKElizabeth KhouryOct 18, 20251.0Came in to check our battery health. The employee did not check the battery, and lied and said he did and that we need to purchase a new battery. We were standing right there so knew he blatantly lied about the battery. Then he sold us the wrong lightbulb, and did not provide a receipt upon purchase. When we went back in to return it THAT DAY, he had asked if we figured out the battery issue. When the other cashier got the manager because we didn’t have a receipt, that same employee blatantly lied and pretended he didn’t know who we were or that he sold us the bulb. When called on his bluff, he admitted it and the manager allowed the return. The manager was very nice and handled it well for us.

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.
