⭐ **1 Star – Horrible and Unprofessional Service**
The service at this Advance Auto Parts is **completely unacceptable**. The staff was **untrained**, **unhelpful**, and had **no access to the system**, forcing me to waste my time for no reason. Instead of providing assistance, I was told to **return another day when the manager would be available**—a clear sign of incompetence.
To make matters worse, the manager ended the interaction with a **completely inappropriate comment**: **“Have a good day, hopefully you don’t crash out there.”** This was not only unprofessional but **disrespectful** and **out of line** for any customer service interaction.
Such behavior is **unexcusable** and **reflects poorly** on both the store and the company as a whole. I will **never return** to this location, and I strongly advise others to avoid it as well.

My first experience at this store, and I can't fault the helpfulness and kindness with which I received treatment. I was able to find everything, and they were able to answer any questions I had. I would gladly return.

We have a commercial account with Advance Auto Parts, but this location refused to charge our account as we've been doing for the last decade. We always pay off our account balance in a timely manner. We do not owe any outstanding balance at all, and still they refused to apply it to our account. Total waste of our time and will never return to this location again. Staff was rude and unhelpful. Very displeased with this experience. Avoid this location if you can.

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.
