- JLJill LackoreOct 27, 20255.0I am so happy to have these guys in New London! They have been beyond friendly and helpful to me. I was stuck across the street at Taco Bell when my car would not start. I called and asked if they would be willing to come across the street to start my battery so that I could take my car to the store for them to check. Without hesitation, he (I did not get his name, but it might have been the manager) brought the jump box to start my car and I was able to get to the store. They changed my battery within minutes. Noah and Chris were fantastic employees who made sure that my car started before I left. They deserve a raise. I am thrilled to see this kind of customer service in a society that does not have that anymore. Thank you!

- DWD WAug 31, 20252.0Got to the store 5 minutes before close and the guy was visibly annoyed and upset. Definitely not a customer first mindset from that individual.

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.
