This is definately my preferred auto parts store, every other Advanced Auto is simply a backup!
Alivia S. has always taken care of me as I traverse the things I need to keep my car operational.
The rest of the staff, such as David Z. recently, are always motivated and helpful to try and get me the right "whatever it is I need."
This is both my in-person, and online pickup location of choice.
Always Appreciated!

My husband and I went in here for a new battery, and Alicia was so extremely helpful and went above and beyond to make sure we were able to get what we needed. I can’t thank her enough for her help.

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.
