- SSShelby SeayAug 4, 20251.0Came in and stood in line for over 15 min which I could deal with. Then the guy walks in the back and never comes back. I ask an associate that is walking around and he says he doesn’t have a computer that Rob should be coming back, but NEVER did! It’s ridiculous trying to get service when everyone looks like they hate their job and avoids helping! They need to bring back the young kid that used to be here.. won’t be back!

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.
