Beware buyers, I purchased a battery a diehard gold battery from advance auto. They said was in October 2021. My battery went bad. I took it back. Keep in mind has a three year warranty. I took it back. They gave me a replacement battery in September 2023, which is roughly 2 years Here we are of October 2025. It's been two years ago.Now the battery has gone bad again. I took the battery back. Keep in mind three year warranty full replacement. They checked the battery again today. Two years old and their battery check machine says the batteries is no good even though it has a three year warranty they will not give you a new battery. If it was a replacement battery because the first one was bad and didn't last three years which it only lasted two years now I got a battery replacement and it's only lasted two years. They say there's no warranty so no battery replacement for me even though it says three year full replacement if the batteries's bad so buyers beware they don't stand behind their warranty. It seems as if the first time it goes bad they give you a replacement the minute you walk out that door you have no warranty on your replacement battery. It's a shame because I've bought many things over the years advanced Auto. I've always preferred them over the other two parts stores two blocks away but after today, no more they've lost my business so buyers beware.

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.
