I came in needing a transmission line and, after having been taken advantage of in the past at another shop, I was honestly cautious and a bit hesitant. Cory handled the situation professionally and took the time to look up multiple store locations to see where the part might be available. He also offered to order it for me instead of pushing anything unnecessary. That level of transparency made me feel comfortable and reassured. Before leaving, I asked for his name because I felt his help deserved to be recognized. Experiences like this restore a little faith in customer service.

I called this location to check for part availability. I was put on hold before I could even get a word out. Whoever answered the phone said "Advance, hold!" And left me on hold for about 3 minutes. Someone finally picked up and asked me how they can help me. I explained I'm calling for availability and they immediately interrupted me telling me that I need to hold for whoever put me on hold. I waited about 5 more minutes before hanging up. Service like this is completely unacceptable! During the very brief times I was connected I also heard their store burglar alarm sounding off over the phone. This call was placed at 3:10pm on Tuesday Dec 9th

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.
