I needed a battery for my boat, and after researching, I found that Advanced Auto Parts had the best price. I even called ahead to confirm it was in stock, which an employee verified. When I arrived to pick it up, the employee was distracted by another customer and never gave me a receipt.
Unfortunately, the battery didn’t work. I called the store and was told by a different employee that since I had installed it (the battery was hooked up to my boat for less than 30 minutes), they usually wouldn’t take it back, but that the manager would likely make an exception if I came in the morning. I showed up as soon as they opened, waited 15 minutes for the manager, only to be told he couldn’t help because it had already been installed. He also wanted to take the battery to test it, but without a receipt, I didn’t feel comfortable handing it over.
The lack of accountability and customer service was extremely disappointing. I will not be returning to this store.

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.
