- DCDmitri Cannady6 days ago5.0Pretty fair customer service. Great knowledge for parts and ect. For things to do it yourself.
- VPVie PettingillFeb 27, 20265.0My go to auto parts store. Competitively priced and a great selection. Most of the staff are knowledgeable, and there always seems to be that one person on shift who just knows everything - or where to find it. They do bring in some inexperienced staff, but they're still always super helpful and friendly. The store is clean, well stocked, and designed to keep an open feel to the place. Also, they have great hours for an auto parts store. I'd definitely recommend, even to my grandmother who knows nothing about cars.

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.
