- NWNerisa Eugenia WatermanJan 27, 20265.0Always excellent service from this Edison New Jersey location. The staff always make sure you understand the root of the problem and the solution. I asked if someone could come outside and take a look at a message on my dashboard and without hesitation, I believe his name was “Greg” and he came outside in 18 degrees and checked the message and was able to provide a solution. He walked me through the buying process on which products were available and best for my vehicle. He also made sure the message disappeared from the dashboard before leaving the location. As always excellent customer service from this location. The employees always go above and beyond 🏆

- AAAmen AllmanJun 20, 20255.0I’ve come here a few times and was helped courteously. The staff was kind enough to let me borrow tools for a quick fix on my car without complaint. And their employee, Senester, always make sure I get the best deals available for purchases.

How much does a car battery cost?
A traditional lead/acid car battery can range between $60-$120. The difference in cost comes from a variety of things, like the size of the vehicle or any special requirements needed from the battery, i.e. an increased resistant to cold or hot climates. The type of battery also has an affect on the price whether it be a lead/acid, calcium, lithium-ion, deep-cycle.
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.
