- PBPat Woods BarbeeJan 5, 20265.0Friendly and helpful. They even put the new rear wheel rear wiper on my car for me that was a big help
- DRDestiny RichardsJan 5, 20261.0Your website says that you offer free battery installation, however, you all hire all these people who don’t know how to install a battery and therefore tell you they can’t do it. After paying $300 for a new battery, i know have to find a mechanic who will install the battery for me, which will be another $50-$60 needing to be spent. Please ensure the people you are hiring are able to complete the basic functions of the job. I was told a battery couldn’t be installed in my 2019 Chevrolet Blazer without someone even coming to look at my vehicle. I ended up returning the battery to Advance Auto Parts and going to O’Reilly’s who installed the battery with no issue. Please do better.
- RTReginald TateNov 27, 20255.0The staff and manager are very helpful and courteous.
- HVHolly ValdezAug 27, 20254.0I like this place a lot. The employees are always very helpful, but I was very disappointed when I went the other night for an emergency part for my car and the doors were locked before it was even 730 and they didn’t close until 8 PM.

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.
