Had to stop with my partner at this location travelling from Tennessee to Florida in my new (to me) Subaru. Andrew was so beyond kind and informative about the issue with my car. Helped us clean what needed to be cleaned and tighten what needed to be tightened. I know next to nothing about cars, same with my partner, so his guidance and comforting explanations of everything was a needed change compared to our usual experiences at places like this (not just AAP). We made it safely to Dublin, where I have family but without his advice I would have stayed in Calhoun and been in a worse position. Btw it was the transmission but everything will be fine 🙂↕️

I am very disappointed with the Advance Auto Parts location in Calhoun, GA. I purchased a Die Hard Silver battery from this store less than a year and a half ago. Unfortunately, when I called to return because of an issue, they would not honor the warranty. The battery had been sold under a commercial account by a manager who no longer works there, instead of being properly registered under my phone number like I requested. Because of that mistake on their end, I was denied the warranty coverage I should have had.
A warranty is supposed to mean something, and customers should not be penalized because of an employee’s error. Businesses should take responsibility for their employees- and this particular employee was known for these under handed practices. This experience left me very dissatisfied, and I will be taking my business elsewhere.

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.
