- TMTomBecky MorganJan 15, 20265.0Ordered part on line, when I went to pick it up at store I noticed it was not the exact right one, store staff was very helpful in finding the right part and doing a return and getting the correct part in a quick manner.
- KMKimberly McGhieJan 5, 20265.0Sunday morning and my car battery died. They had the battery, replaced it after offering other suggestions I could try. No hard sell. And they came right out to my car and dealt with it. Super nice man who made me smile.

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.
