Be on the lookout when you head to this shop they may charge you for extra items that you haven’t asked for or wasn’t aware of! My wife purchased windshield and light bulb and the agent charged her without even asking the question if she wanted to include the 12 months plan warranty. When I came back to confront him He mentioned she was probably told (not mentioning that he was one the one who helped her). A lie. Never coming back again and highly don’t recommend this store. Customers Check out your bill before leaving this store.

Had bad luck at auto zone so I came here and met James Lloyd, very knowledgeable and helpful. He came to my car to check my headlight (something auto zone said they can’t do bcuz it was electric). James also went out of his way with a phone call and a message to provide me my online order details, which he didn’t have to do. Hands down best first experience! Thank you James

Guy at counter refused to do an engine check with 2 other employees in the store and no other customers. Terrible 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.
