General Manager and staff are extremely helpful. Young man installed my battery on my Prius, this was difficult, but he was persistent and stuck to it and had no trouble with it. General Manager was calming and told me not to worry; trust me, I was worried after going to other local auto parts store and they telling me they couldn't help me. Batteries are not cheap but they installed it for me and I was able to buy a warranty on the battery. I can't tell you how much these guys saved the day for me and really just came through for a regular every day person that they did not know. I felt like the reason this store is good is because of their leadership and their staff. Thank you Advanced auto parts store on carpenter road for helping every day folks and making the world better.

Called the Ypsilanti MI Advance auto and spoke to Joe about a battery for our 2015 Equinox he said that the battery was in stock I asked about installation and he said they would have to look at it.I arrived and Joe remembered talking to me came and took a look and said he could do it and it would be 45 minutes. Joe is a very professional detail orientated person I could tell that from the way he took care of our car. Thank You Joe for your great service today we appreciate it and thank you Advance auto. Tony.

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.
