can’t speak highly enough of how the staff helped me here. My battery died and stranded me an hour from home and I coasted to this store near 4pm. The manager helped me test my battery and my alternator, and he fully charged my battery (all free of charge.) he offered me coffee to warm up.
The manager personally walked me over to the pep boys next door and asked them to try to get my alternator replaced that night. When they didn’t have the part, he had someone go get it from another store.
thank you so much to the staff here.

Great customer service @ 2418 Laurens Rd. Although the GM was busy with another customer, he immediately greeted me and let me know he’d be with me shortly. Once available, he helped locate the items on my list, patiently explained the differences between similar products, and presented himself as both knowledgeable and professional.

I was recently in Greenville SC and stopped in the Laurens Road store. First, it was clean, neatly organized, and seemed well stocked. Auto parts stores can be scary places, this one was great. In addition to the manager, the other employees were attentive to the customers. One was working on a car battery in the lot and the other was to covering the store. I overheard the manager working schedules, helping the new girl with the battery, and he found time to tell me about the different quality levels of batteries. Note: I will be purchasing Platinum when the time comes. As a retired manager, I can recognize a well run shop as soon as I walk in. Nice work everyone.

The type of battery also has an affect on the price whether it be a lead/acid, calcium, lithium-ion, deep-cycle.
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.
