All I needed was help with a blown fuse in my Nissan Rogue. I was told they couldn’t come look at my fuse box because it was a liability. Zero help. Didn’t seem interested in helping anyway. I went home, looked on YouTube and figured it out myself. Thanks anyway. Sure won’t be going back there.

My brake light wouldn’t turn off and I didn’t find out till about 7:15 PM so I called Pepboys where I usually go but they said they couldn’t get to me. Next I drove to Discount Tires, but they were already closed. Desperate, I went to Advanced Auto ( all were in the same block of Cypress Gardens Blvd., Winter Haven) and a young man named Jaime helped me out. He looked at my car and said he was sure he knew what to do and showed me a quick YouTube about replacing my brake light pad. So I bought the little part and went home and did it! Empowerment! Thanks to Jaime and his time at Advanced Auto!

The type of battery also has an affect on the price whether it be a lead/acid, calcium, lithium-ion, deep-cycle.
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.
