- HHhaezelFeb 4, 20265.0I cannot thank the team at this Advance Auto Parts enough for their help! My car broke down right in front of their store on the road, and to make things worse, it was nighttime and they were just about to close. Even though it was the end of their shift, a young man working there was incredibly humble and stepped up to help me when I didn't know what to do. In a moment that was very stressful, they stayed and provided the support I needed to get through it. It is rare to find people this kind and helpful these days. As someone who always tries to help others, I was so moved to find that same spirit in these employees. They didn't just see me as a customer; they treated me like a person in need. We need more people like this in the world! I highly recommend this location not just for parts, but for the amazing, compassionate people who work here.
- JBjames bloodworthNov 3, 20251.0If you are going to close early, you should really update your sign, and the online parts ordering where prepaid and said to pick up at 8:15! 🤬
- CCCJay (Cj)Oct 20, 20255.0Online orders are a breeze at Advanced Auto
- CBCharles BryantSep 5, 20251.0Terrible customer service! I went in on Friday august 29th around 6 pm. Looked around the store for an item and couldnt find it. 2 employees in the store (no other customers) after awhile I asked one of them for help. I got an Attitude and a finger point across the store "over there somwhere" he says. (He didnt want to be bothered with a customers needs.) I said "thanks for nothing" and walked out. Unacceptable treatment for a paying customer.

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.
