- WBWalter Becker2 days ago5.0The store is clean and well organized, very kind and helpful associates at parts counters.
- TBTimothy BletskoDec 24, 20251.0Employe keeps hanging up on me for no reason.
- CMCynthia McCauleyDec 6, 20255.0Great service as usual . Damon was fantastic and solved a problem with my battery.
- ERElmer RodriguezNov 7, 20253.0Battery installation is free, but only if you purchase the battery in person at the store. Online orders do not qualify for the free installation, even if you select in-store pickup. There should really be a clear disclaimer about this on the website, because it’s easy to assume “pickup in store” would count. The staff were helpful once I got there, but it was frustrating to find that detail out the hard way.
- JCJason ColemanOct 1, 20255.0I wanted to recognize excellence in customer service! I was greeted by Ronnie close to closing time tonight with a part request. He had the part number in memory and had me out the door with a replacement in under 5 minutes. Your staff at this location are incredible. Thank you very much!!

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.
