Today I experienced great customer service.
My battery was causing issues with my vehicle and I did not know if I needed it changed. Kayla ,Antonio and Alexis were very experienced and expressed which options I had available. My battery was replaced and now I’m able to drive to work again. Anytime you have an issue with your only source of transportation and need exceptional service visit this location.

This location definitely has associates that care about the car maintenance of their customers! Recently I had to purchase both windshield wipers and windshield fluid for my Juke. I was helped by Brandon that helped me find the perfect ones for my car. While doing the battery diagnostic I appreciated that he was willing to answer any car related questions. Mind you I literally only drive and pay attention to my gas usage so I can be a little clueless about car care at times. 😆He even gave tips on how to select the ideal battery when it is time to purchase a new one next year. The selection and hours make it very convenient to stay up to date with all my car needs. Free diagnostics coupled with great customer service mean this is my preferred location for all my car care needs going forward!

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.
