I did not get a name but I had a lady with curly hair and piercings there. I tried returning something I had purchased online,I show her the email purchase notification and her first reaction when I told her was “it has to have a barcode”(no issue there, I understand). I proceed to do pull it up on my phone . Then she claims she is not able to scan it, and I have to print out the page. How are purchases being made, what difference does a printed barcode page make to one on a phone?

We just left this lovely establishment, and there was beautiful lady with glasses and a very kind gentleman who helped me and my son (wish I would’ve gotten your names, but the date and time says it all).
Thank you!! Y’all made our day!
You two are rockstar employees, and I appreciate your help and patience🩷

I truly wanted to give this place a 5-star review because the overall experience was solid and the two Spanish guys were on point with customer interaction. Unfortunately, I’m leaving 3 stars due to one front-desk employee (girl) who was unnecessarily rude to my husband and had a soul reaching stare, without any clear reason. No smiles, no hello, just cold shoulder treatment.
We generally give people the benefit of the doubt...everyone has off days...but this was early in the morning and we were likely among the first customers, which made the interaction even more surprising. Customer-facing roles set the tone for the entire experience, and bringing personal emotions into the workplace can create an unwelcoming and hostile atmosphere, even when the business itself is doing everything else right.
A brief team check-in or reminder around professionalism and tone could go a long way. Small interactions matter, and respectful service makes customers feel valued, not tolerated. I hope this feedback is taken constructively, because this place has the potential to be a consistent 5-star experience.

They refuse to warranty my car battery without me taking it out of my car and leaving it with them overnight. Can't exactly drive my car without a battery, thats a wild way to avoid honoring a warranty. I'll be taking my buisness to another company permenantly.

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.
