Arthur is so kind and respectful. He greeted me when I walked in even though he was with a customer. And continued to do the same for the next customer while he was assisting on me. He’s so nice and was able to test and install my battery for replacement. Gerald was able to help him locate my battery after online had an incorrect inventory number, or else I would have had to drive to the District heights location for my battery and I would have had to go find someone or someplace to install it. Only this location does installation. Jasmine was kind when I called and answered my questions. I got a great deal on my battery and 4-year warranty. Come on 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.
