Called for help regarding a battery, got bare minimum answer and hung up on. Not the way you should treat customers. Do better.

Super helpful staff I think the gentleman’s name was Barry…Nonetheless I came in needing something particular & specific he made sure to find exactly the item.
He also gave some tips on the new pressure washer I’m assembling.
Couldn’t be more appreciative when dealing with folks as awesome as him!

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.
