Melissa is the best commercial rep I have worked with throughout my mechanical career. She goes above and beyond to find correct parts and she doesn’t stop until she finds it. She represents the Advance Auto company very well. It needs to be acknowledged for all her hard work and effort that she put into this company. Thank you Melissa for always helping out not just your commercial side but the customers that just walk in keep up the great work!!!

My dad stopped here to get a car battery replaced. Bobby did a great job getting us in and out. Very pleasant, quick, and efficient. While the battery was getting changed I went inside to use the restroom and the female manager was VERY rude and harsh.
5+ stars for Bobby
0 stars for the manager

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.
