I came in because I had purchased windshield wipers and one of them was broken. I’m a college student and have no idea about how to fix cars. Michelle was so kind and came out to look just to make sure. She fixed the issue in 5 minutes and was so happy to do so! Such an amazing experience. Thank you!

Stopped on a very cold night with a dying battery just a few minutes before the store closed. Andrew and his associate could have very easily told me they were closing. They didn't! Andrew went to work to get me taken care of. Knowledgeable, friendly and the install was very efficient with care taken to test everything afterward. Excellent service! Thanks Andrew!

The guy at the counter couldn't find what I needed (I felt like he thought I was dumb). Went to O'Reilly and spoke to a man who was very helpful and got me what I needed.

I recently stopped in to get a new windshield wiper and the lady helping me was amazing! I didn’t get her name, but she had to yank the old windshield wiper off bc it had snapped and it took some brute force but she fixed it and was super knowledgeable about everything. And then when I was leaving, another college aged girl came in and she was having car troubles and the same lady came out immediately and started to help her. She was so competent and awesome, I will definitely recommend this shop to my friends and I had a very positive experience :)

A traditional lead/acid car battery can range between $60-$120. The difference in cost comes from a variety of things, like the size of the vehicle or any special requirements needed from the battery, i.e. an increased resistant to cold or hot climates. The type of battery also has an affect on the price whether it be a lead/acid, calcium, lithium-ion, deep-cycle.
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.
