- JSJeffrey SpraulAug 9, 20255.0The team at the festus store have consistently helped me with solving question about my car. They have pointed me the correct direction more times than I can count. They are knowledgeable and willing to listen and then help me get the job finished. I recommend the store as a first stop for anyone in Jefferson county needing parts and advice
- JHJonathan HoltJul 26, 20255.0They had the part, friendly staff, horrible day lol
- JJJonDec 2, 20221.0I went there Dec 1, 2022 and I was not to pleased with this store. There was only one guy I think his name was Nick and all he really wanted to do was answer the phone instead of helping the inside store customers who was waiting. Then he didn’t even know how to put in my speed perks so I didn’t even get points for my purchase. You could hear a couple people in the back laughing and have a grand time instead of helping. Disappointed. Atleast o’Reillys acknowledges people and says they will be right with you.

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.
