I went to return a core for $22 and the two $10 ones I had they couldn’t even find my information in the computer, they were very unprofessionalThe counter helped there was untrained unprofessional. If the man that was working, there is the manager. He should not be a manager. He doesn’t even know how to refund a customer. He was very rude when I was asking him to please get off his phone and his personal phone call and talking to someone about taking them out to eat and having drinks he swore and said Jesus Christ at me and I took offense of that then he talked about “Ima kill this” A couple times and I’m thinking what is he talking about killing me and then when I brought it up to his attention, he said, changed his tone! When it was time for me to sign my receipt, he didn’t even speak to me. He just put a pen down in front of me and a piece of paper. He didn’t politely treat me like a manager should and said he just complained about me To His Friend on the phone that must’ve hired him lol idk But I will never go back to that location again! I have always used the 14 mile location, which has always been nice and helpful. This person should not be training anyone when he didn’t even have the proper training for himself.

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.
