- NBNikita B.Feb 7, 20261.0They serviced the males in line first and accommodated the women last. Regardless of whomever was there first. Disappointed in the service here. Won't be back.
- GMG MartinJan 29, 20261.0I took a battery there to be charged. The guy told me it would take about 35 minutes & he would CALL me when it was finished. I waited for that call for an hour. He never called. So I went back to get my battery. He said it was not chargeable. Why couldn't he call, like he said he would & tell me that??? So unprofessional. I probably wouldn't go there again. There is another auto parts store right down the street.

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.
