- VWVache Watson5 days ago1.0Store manager Denise with the locs was extremely rude and she charged me extra for a warranty on blades I did not ask for. When I asked for a refund I received attitude with no apology

- CBChico BaileyOct 30, 20251.0Their young employees making threats ain't the move. Went here yesterday for a pickup. One of their employees was spotted earlier in the lot driving reckless and illegal. A simple jester to give advice to drive safe. Turn into "I'm going to make a phone call"... Not professional at all. Sad part is management wanted to come in the store yelling as if she knew what happened at me.

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.
