I went here recently to change my battery with my dad, and the customer service I received was beyond exceptional. The two associates working (I believe their names are Mark and Bryan) were friendly, patient, and incredibly helpful. Bryan went out of his way to help me change one of my terminals. And Mark helped me navigate through changing a new battery. I will definitely visit again if I have any car trouble or fix ups I need in the future.

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.
