Corry was extremely helpful! He got us what we needed fast and efficiently and was very kind. Usually guys make you feel kinda stupid for not knowing what’s wrong with your car but he made us feel in-the-know and involved with the process!!!!

Went in looking for a 02 sensor wrench, they had no clue what it was- i asked if the one they had in stock was the only one guy said "I dont know." Asked if they rented them guy said "I dont know." Then I asked if there was a autozone near by guy said " i dont know."
Ne er once came from behind the counter to help, never once looked on the computer to see if they rented the 02 sensor wrench and didn't know shit.
Same guy a couple weeks prior my girlfriend drove my friends car up there to get a diagnostic run on it and he told her he cant do it because in order to do it he had to take parts off the vehicle to hook the reader up lmao its literally under the steering column. These boys are lazy that was there today and shouldn't be working in customer service.

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.
