- JGJake GessnerFeb 13, 20261.0So i ordered a spark plug wire kit and didn't realize i ordered it from another state and put same day delivery. ( yes i know its my fault lol) So i called the store to see about canceling it and they said they didn't have an order for me and that i never placed one, which i gave them the order number and what i ordered and still said they didn't have anything in there system and proceeded to hang up the phone without helping me resolve my issue of being out $100 to a store that's 4 hours away. I'd say never order from here cause they're not gunna help in any way.
- MDMichael DoeNov 19, 20255.0# Positive Review for Advanced Auto Parts - Capitol Heights, MD I recently had an exceptional experience at Advanced Auto Parts in Capitol Heights, MD, thanks to an outstanding employee named Perry. From the moment I walked in, Perry demonstrated a level of professionalism that made me feel valued as a customer. She was not only timely in her assistance but also incredibly knowledgeable about the products and services. I needed help with purchasing and replacing a battery in my vehicle. Perry tackled the task with skill and efficiency, ensuring everything was handled smoothly. Overall, I highly recommend visiting Advanced Auto Parts, especially if you have the chance to work with Perry. Her dedication to customer service and her technical skills truly stood out, making my experience enjoyable and hassle-free. Thank you, Perry, for going above and beyond!
- AAazazelOct 15, 20255.0I had an amazing experience with Perry! She was extremely helpful throughout the entire process of replacing the battery on my Hummer H2. Her professionalism, knowledge, and friendly attitude made everything quick and easy. I truly appreciate her the experience made my day!!!
- MJMarlene JaniferOct 15, 20255.0On Tuesday October 14, 2025 Ms Sia helped me purchase a battery for my son's car. Sia took time to call me back to inform me the battery we originally discussed would not be strong enough for the car and gave me the information on a better battery. When people care about people it makes a difference in life. My husband and I agree Ms Sia is a kind person to make sure we purchased the best product to keep our son safe. Advance Auto you have a great employee and staff at the Walker Mill location in District Heights Maryland. Thank you for caring about your customers. MJ

A traditional lead/acid car battery can range between $60-$120. The difference in cost comes from a variety of things, like the size of the vehicle or any special requirements needed from the battery, i.e. an increased resistant to cold or hot climates. The type of battery also has an affect on the price whether it be a lead/acid, calcium, lithium-ion, deep-cycle.
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.
