Jim was the clerk who helped me at the store in Middletown NJ on Highway 35 on 10/31/2025. I asked him if he could show me how to install the engine air filter I purchased for my 2025 Honda CR-V. He went out to my car and in 2 minutes just did it....He definitely went above and beyond what anyone would expect as far as I'm concerned

I truly appreciate this store for consistently being helpful, courteous, and professional. On more than one occasion, the team has gone above and beyond to take care of me—whether it’s spending the time to research and track down the exact part I need, or reaching out to corporate to resolve an issue on my behalf.
The General Manager, Riki Johnson, deserves special recognition. Thank you, Riki—your leadership and your team’s dedication are the primary reasons I go out of my way to shop at this location.

Super helpful staff. I had a piece of plastic hanging off the bottom of my car and it felt like it would be a waste of money to take the car into a shop. They took a look and were able to pop a new clip in and have me done within a few minutes!

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.
