I’m disappointed with how Advance Auto Parts handled my warranty issue. I purchased a Platinum DieHard battery from them four months ago, and last week my car wouldn’t start. After getting a jump, I drove to a trusted mechanic who ran a quick check and suspected the battery was the problem—without charging me.
I returned to Advance Auto Parts expecting a straightforward swap. Instead, they asked me to keep the car running for 30 minutes before testing the battery. I explained that testing a freshly charged battery doesn’t reveal whether it can hold a charge, but they insisted it was store policy and refused to do more.
I went back to the mechanic, who kept the car overnight and confirmed the battery was indeed defective. Only after I contacted Advance Auto Parts corporate and shared the diagnostic results did they agree to replace the battery. Since the swap, I’ve had no issues—but they still refused to reimburse the diagnostic fee.
To be clear, the store staff weren’t the problem. The real issue is the flawed policy that prevents proper testing and delays warranty fulfillment. Advance Auto Parts needs to update its procedures to better support customers and honor its product guarantees.

Location is always well stocked and the staff is always very helpful. We had a great experience over the phone and at the store finding a part with Tasha. She was very knowledgeable and informative on the product we needed. If she is there ask for her assistance she is fantastic at customer service and going above and beyond for her customers.

This stores attendants are not friendly and are not accommodating. I was ignored when entering the store and someone after me was properly greeted. Won't come back here.

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.
