- WYWanda YoungOct 12, 20255.0I'm liking where I can purchase auto items on line and pick them up in the store, including getting a discount if you purchase on line. Every little bit helps to save. I recommend shopping on line.
- UOuche OdionyenmaOct 2, 20255.0Good customer service experience The staffs took time to explain my items different types and address my concerns on the product purchased.
- JCJasmin ColeySep 18, 20255.0I came to this location EXTREMELY flustered and with the wrong attitude. As soon as I stepped out my vehicle I was greeted by Sonny who acknowledged my frustration & brought me back down to planet earth. He let me know in what capacity they are able to assist the customer and was extremely informative. He almost seems like an expert when it comes to vehicles which was a plus. Not only did he assist me with my most recent issue but he also gave me resolution for the ones I turned a blind eye to. He has great customer service and a knack for deescalation. That skill set will carry him very far. Thank you Sonny for easing my frustration, as a woman these things make us feel lost and you definitely guided me through this professionally and empathetically.

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.
