I went in for a diagnostic, headlight, and tail lights. The guy gave me some of the best service I've ever had in any kind of retail store. He was very informative and made my shopping experience pleasant

Very great overall experience. I ordered online (which i was able to use the website generated coupon to save some money, very nice) for store pick up. I had my sister grab it since I couldn't drive and they had it ready and double checked it. Had her in and out fast. Very happy with the whole experience super easy! Fair prices too.

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.
