I want to take a moment to recognize the outstanding customer service I received today from Chad Santiago at the Aberdeen Advance Auto Parts. I came in expecting a quick and simple purchase—just a pair of tailgate lift shocks—but Chad turned what I thought would be a routine stop into an unexpectedly educational experience.
Chad took the time to explain the installation process in detail and pointed out a few things I hadn’t considered. What impressed me most was how clearly and patiently he communicated—he even pulled up a short video to show exactly what he was describing. His professionalism, product knowledge, and genuine willingness to help made all the difference.
At 74 years old, I’ve done my share of DIY car work, but I can honestly say that without Chad’s guidance, I would probably still be out there struggling to install those shocks the wrong way. Thanks to him, the job went smoothly, and I learned something new in the process.
Chad deserves full credit for his expertise and excellent customer service. Advance Auto Parts should be proud to have someone like him on their team.

Andre and Chad saved me from being stuck at a friends over night, I ordered rotors from another retailer by me last week and I received the wrong rotors.. so when I went to install them they were too big. Andre and Chad were both there and worked together to get me in and out with no trouble. 10/10 would go back. THANKS AGAIN GUYS!!

For context, I live about an hour and a half away and work in Aberdeen. Today I had the unfortunate luck of my alternator pulley snapping off my alternator. I saw this shop had a replacement part in stock. Daniel Ruppert went above and beyond helping make this as easy as possible. He knew I was racing to beat the heat and impending thunderstorms so I could make it home. He brought me water to help with the heat, helped find me any loaner tool I needed, and even hooked me up with a poncho from his own vehicle when the rain started. You could tell that he truly wanted to help and felt bad that he couldn't do more as it was only him manning the counter today. Hopefully I dont have any problems any time soon, but if I do I would definitely feel comfortable shopping here again

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.
