- CRCarlos RamirezDec 26, 20253.0No atienden muy vien
- JBjessica bowmanDec 19, 20255.0Once again, my experience here was amazing. The first time I came was a couple weeks ago to buy some brake pads and some rotors and Cynthia was very knowledgeable and helpful with the whole transition of purchasing these items. Then I came today a couple weeks later to buy a starter for my car and Cynthia as well as Hope were more than accommodating and friendly and had a great smile.
- KCKurt CaseyDec 8, 20255.0Picked up an online order with no issues luckily.
- TCTavi CruzNov 25, 20251.0Before you leave the store, double check the box for all the parts and components. I was sold these break pads but with missing pad shims. Just a torn plastic with some grease where the shims would be. I guess who ever needed them forgot to put them back. By the time I found out, I was already at the auto shop. I had to reuse my old and rusty pad shims with the new brake pads when I replaced them.
- WLWade's video libraryOct 30, 20253.0Bare minimum employee, with bare minimum service. Had what I needed, but that's all. The employee on duty was not nice, not rude either, but somewhere in between the two. Not going back to this location unless they are the only location around the area that has a part or accessory I need.

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.
