Rewritten Review
I attempted to return an item I hadn’t used. The clerk (who did not wear a name tag) claimed it was against store policy because the item contained Freon. He told me to come back the next day to speak with the manager. When I asked for the clerk’s name, he said it was “Chris,” but there was no last name tag to verify, which is concerning given how common the name is. He refused to share any personal information, arguing that he couldn’t disclose it, despite being an employee of your store. His attitude was rude, and he treated me as though I were attempting to scam the store. I’m sure my race was a factor.
I am a regular customer and a veteran, and I value the discounts that come with my purchases. This incident has made me reconsider patronizing your establishment. If my bad experience is indicative of your overall customer service, I may urge others to avoid your store as well. While I’m not seeking a refund or an apology, I wanted to inform you about what I perceive as poor management practices. Based on industry customer service standards, this situation could result in a loss of several customers.

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.
