Needed new wiper blades day before Christmas. Store pretty empty, but when I walked in I was welcomed by Sheli who offered to help me. I knew the size I needed she double checked to make sure. She also quickly changed then for me. She'll knows her stuff. Was very friendly and helpful. I was on my way in 15 minutes. Highly recommend. I'd go back.

Do not, I repeat, do not shop at this store. Bought a Diehard battery at this location less than a year ago. For the last week, we have had to get jumped several times. Took our car back to get it checked and they said it was good. The next day, had to get jumped AGAIN. Went to the dealership who said the battery would only hold a 30% charge. So back to this store. They hooked up their little checker thing and said the battery was good but needed a charge! They would not warranty it. So I asked if was good and needed a charge didn't that tell them something? They said it was good. Bryce and the other guy there are not very customer service oriented. So we are back at the dealership buying a new battery. These people are taking advantage of customers. The manager wasn't even at the store. Worst service ever.

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.
