Stopped in to have my battery checked and George was quick to help out. He tested the battery and suggested that I drive around some more and that he would recheck to make sure before committing to a new battery. We did end up needing a new battery after the retest and George discussed the battery options and installed with no issues while being polite and friendly the entire time. Great job George!

I stopped in and asked George if he would be able to do a battery check and scan on my car. Even though it was raining and chilly out, he had no problem doing it. He was very kind and helpful. He explained some things to me and helped me eliminate some issues that was going on with my car. He also told me where I could go to get an even more extensive scan, which was helpful. I will be returning and recommending.

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.
