Would’ve gave 5 stars but the energy The Manager Paul(Black Bald head guy) gave his customers is unacceptable. Who left that guy in charge of their business? Every customers that I’ve spoken while getting my vehicle battery replaced by Josh said the same thing. Paul needs to be retrained on customer skills or that business won’t survive with him. I don’t never want to have to deal with him. Thank God for Josh he was very helpful, nice and polite. He should be the man in charge. 5 stars for Josh 1 star for Paul.

I bought a tire pressure pump because I thought I lost mine. When I found mine I tried to return it but they wouldn’t let me. It was my first time shopping here and no one explained when I bought it that there was a no returns policy so I’m stuck with an item I don’t need. I should have just bought it literally anywhere else and I’ll definitely be getting any items for future car needs from another store

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.
