Great customer service! Horrible and Unsafe Environment. You need professional security up there before someone gets seriously injured or even killed IN your store. I value my safety and I'll never go back. My anxiety and depression is through the ROOF! Your store allows loitering. Your EMPLOYEES don't feel safe...you basically need a gun walking around in that store is what I found out from my own personal experience if you don't know a martial art or professional self defense tactics.

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.
