This morning I took my vehicle to Advance Auto Parts, and it was confirmed that my battery was dead. The gentleman who helped me not only replaced the battery, but he also installed new windshield wiper blades that needed to be replaced as well. What started out as a rough morning turned out to be a blessing. Thank you Zach for your incredible customer service. I not only appreciate your efficiency of the quality of work that you provided, but also appreciate the quick turnaround. If anyone is in need of a new battery or needs to replace their windshield wiper blades, I would highly recommend this location.

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.
