- GJGeo J3 days ago4.0Very good customer service and attention. A good stock of parts too. But like EVERYTHING...high-prices. Cost:Value is well below average anymore, as it is for every damn business and every product. We're being fleeced by mid and larger sized corporations. There is no "shortage" of ANYTHING. It's False Scarcity, a Corporatist tactic to keep production limited and prices artificially HIGH.
- BSBecky SJan 31, 20265.0Jose installed my new Diehard Gold battery in my 2014 Subaru Forester. He cleaned the battery terminals before installing, something I was concerned about since I’d never had the battery installed there before.

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.
