- MLMichele LabombardDec 30, 20255.0Helped a truck received break pads for all four wheels
- WKWendy KiteSep 22, 20255.0Zach saved our day and our vacation. We had a check engine code and were over 1,000 miles from home. He diagnosed the code and helped us immensely. We can continue our trip, knowing that the repair can be made after we return home!
- JSJoseph SpisakAug 17, 20255.0Zach was friendly and very helpful. He was able to solve a check engine light problem on my Grand Marquis. I highly recommend this store and Zach!
- MHMegan HooneJul 21, 20255.0Sarah F. was so helpful and kind last week when I came in with a dead battery while on vacation. She explained everything to my dad and me while doing it while giving advice. Couldn’t recommend this store enough!
- MBMelvin BurnsDec 12, 20194.0They do have competitive pricing. If you're a do-it-yourselfer and have a newer vehicle more than likely they have the part for it. But if you have an older vehicle if they have the part that you need they'll have to order it and usually takes one day.

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.
