- PPPatriciaFeb 1, 20261.0My husband purchased a battery at the Staurts Draft store. This was on Friday Jan.30. We needed to go an Lexington. The truck would not start. We went to Advance in Lexington and the person, Patsy, ignored him to wait on people coming through the door after him. We sat for several minutes and she didn't respond to our needs. Do not go to this store. TERRIBLE! Service.
- TATamera A.Jan 6, 20265.0I had to stop in there today for assistance with my car. Eric assisted me and explained everything as he went along. Will definitely be going back if I have any other problems. Incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. Highly recommend this location.
- RIRachael IngramNov 13, 20251.0Went to pick up some parts for my Father with his debit card. General manager said she couldn't sell to me with out all the details such as how the order was placed and what the part was. I knew vehicle type and had his debit card. She refused to sell it with out speaking to him 1st. To say I was irate is an understatement. If the part wasn't needed immediately another auto store or an online store would have been used. In 5 years when the store/ business is failing look at your policies. This policies doesn't protect customer safety in this incident , it just causes inconveniences.

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.
