- RSRebecca Sparenberg1 day ago1.0Terrible customer service! They were to busy talking anongs themselves to help me. When I final got a person, they recommend the wrong part. When I tried to exchange it, they refused I bet if it was a man making the return they wouldn’t have dismissed me.

- CHCharlie HendersonJul 10, 20251.0I warranty exchanged pads and caliper recently and apparently someone misplaced the pads, I received a nasty call from the general manager saying because the pads couldn't be found he would report it to loss prevention and the police. I'm even on video physically handing the brake pads to the cashier's separate from the caliper.

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.
