- DYDaniel Yi6 days ago5.0There was a nice worker here with a majestic beard that helped me replace my wipers. I couldn’t figure out the type of connector to use and he took the time to help install them. Another worker was helping a different customer replace their wipers so it looks like they have a helpful team at this location.
- SPStephen PawlikDec 27, 20251.0I went here to buy 5 quarts of Royal Purple 0-20. It was listed on sale for 5 for 37.50. There was a sign under it too indicating the sale. Sure enough they all rang up at 66.00. I show the young man who worked there and he said “oh this expired a week ago”. I asked the store to honor the price advertised and he refused. He is also the manager too according to him. He then tore off the sale price and put it in his pocket letting me know now there’s no proof to my claims. Happy to talk to higher ups this is not acceptable.
- NTNatalia TrawkowskiNov 5, 20255.0I came in looking for oil and a filter for my car, the nice gent at the counter was able to quickly look up what I needed and explained to me the various options as far as the types of oil go. He even had me take a photo of my car’s profile from their computer, so I would have all the info on hand on my phone if needed. Thanks for a great experience!
- PHPeter HayesNov 3, 20255.0Thank you for your services. Both the manager and the staff were awesome. I got oil change, filter, turnsignals, shaft oil. It is unning great. Even if I have to go back in the same day. Thanks!
- RWRobert WaziakOct 16, 20255.0Carl was a phenomenal help on a question/issue I had with installing a rear wiper blade. No hesitation and super kind. Thank you!

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.
