- ARAllison Rivera2 days ago1.0A bit annoyed with my experience here. Went in to have my battery replaced under warranty, and the two employees told me they couldn’t help because I purchased it at a different location and the stores weren’t “connected.” I went back to the original store, where the wonderful employee explained that all they needed to do was scan my receipt and that they absolutely could have helped me. The employees here didn’t even attempt to help, just insisted there was nothing they could do. Very frustrating and an unnecessary trip. Seems like the employees here could use some additional training on warranty procedures.

- GDGannon DonahueJul 21, 20261.0Looked everywhere for a simple cabin air filter. No auto parts store had ANY for my car, so I had to look further out. I saw on the app (which still says it by the way) that they had the filter in stock and ready to buy or order. I ordered it, used half a tank of gas to get there. Got inside and simply wanted to look around before I got my filter and left. I had 3 employees within 2 minutes asking if I needed help and they were hovering over me like I was trying to steal. So I went to the register asked to pick up my order, and the guy goes “oh yeah we didn’t have that item, don’t know why it says we do, we looked everywhere so we canceled the order”…. After I used half a tank of gas to get there and already purchased it online. Now I have money missing out of my bank that who knows when it’ll come back, no gas at all after the trip and got what out of it? Absolutely NOTHING…. Was it really that hard to call me or something and say “hey before you drive 45 minutes here and back, we canceled your order so don’t waste time coming”. Absolutely no common sense from these airhead employees and just wasted my gas time and money. Go to a different auto parts store. The kids working here are lucky the management doesn’t know anything about cars more than they do or they simply wouldn’t have a job. You don’t promise a part to somebody, let them order it and drive ALL THE WAY there to say “yeah we canceled it” and I was so frustrated I just said “ok have a good day” and left. The employee mumbled something angry sounding and didn’t say have a good day back or anything. He went right back to the end of the parts isle to take out his phone and answer some texts…. Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic. These workers don’t deserve their jobs at all and should be homeless.

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.
