Brought in my car battery for warranty replacement. The guy at the counter was very nice and after checking out my battery he gave me a new battery as a replacement. No hassle at all. Great place to buy your car battery.

If i could give a negative review I would. The most UNPROFESSIONAL interaction I've had at an auto parts store. The attendant started our lovely experience by not allowing a full question to leave my husband's mouth before stating "no" and following it with "I can't look it up". We tried repeatedly asking our question and he continued to interrupt and couldn't be bothered to even look in our direction. When we stepped aside for another customer to be seen we pulled up the part number and again he continued to treat us like scum. Wouldn't look in our direction, wouldn't stop and listen to the full question.
I have worked MANY years in a 'service' type industry and I understand having bad days. This guy had the professionalism of a 2year old, highly would not recommend coming here, if you do be prepared for ABSOLUTELY no help or even the time of day.

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.
