Absolutely horrible employees who are unknowledgeable and rude. I went in there to pick up a paid online order with my partner a couple weeks ago, and the younger male working there made fun of my last name to my face while staring at my order on the screen and asking his coworker if they'd even gotten an online order. Are you serious? Fast forward to a couple of days ago, my partner goes in there with a coupon and is WRONGLY told by the "older man" that it has to be redeemed online. My partner had a screenshot OF THE COUPON that had INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE EMPLOYEE TO USE IN STORE. The inability to read and confidence in being wrong is mind blowing. We will never return to this location and I will be requesting that the company removes all of my and his information from their system. I wouldn't trust any of them with cleaning literal poop from their own parking lot, let alone that they can competently sell me car supplies. You're better off going to Advance Auto near Aldi - better service, newer building, MUCH better parking lot.

Horrible experience. The staff was extremely rude, and to make matters worse, the manager came outside yelling at an employee who was just trying to help. Completely unprofessional and uncomfortable to witness. Would not recommend.

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.
