- ACAyanna Cruver2 days ago5.0Just stopped in to grab some windshield wipers and Gabby was super helpful and just so patient and kind. I usually don’t like visiting auto parts stores but Gabby made me feel so comfortable asking questions. Would absolutely visit this location again.
- MBMajestic ButterflyDec 15, 20255.0This is an amazing store. They are Veteran friendly, very professional Mr Joseph went above and beyond the call to help me find everything I needed to get my cars fixed
- AHAsh hopkinsDec 9, 20255.0Mr. Pierre's exceptional knowledge, professionalism, and outstanding customer service skills set a commendable standard for any organization. His approach is exemplary and could serve as a model for others in the industry, particularly in executive search firms and recruitment agencies.
- WMWilliams Accounting & Tax, EA, MAccNov 29, 20255.0I’ve been coming to Advanced Auto Parts for years for my DIY auto needs and should have written this review a long time ago. This morning my battery was giving me trouble, so I called for service. The young lady who answered knew exactly what I needed and guided me right away. A quick trip to the store later, I had my new battery purchased, and the gentleman in the back installed it efficiently. I was back on the road in no time. Great service, knowledgeable staff, and genuinely good people!
- AOAziz OwensNov 14, 20252.0Arrived today 9:50am. Waited for the service rep to help the person in line in front of me with small talk and when it’s my turn the phone rings and the rep takes the call packed with questions instead of helping me and here I am waiting and decided to leave. Service is illogical

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.
