- JMJohnny5 MaleasNov 12, 20255.0Great and friendly staff! Jennifer helped me out and also set me up for Advanced Auto Parts perks and discounts. Thank you!
- MJMatt JohnsonNov 5, 20255.0Jennifer went above and beyond installing a new battery in my teenage daughter’s car. She took the time to teach her how to clean the connections and install the battery as well as check her oil while she was there! Thank you so much for making this such a great learning opportunity Jennifer!
- EEElizabeth EstebanNov 5, 20255.0I had a great experience thanks to Jennifer! She was knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond to help me find the right parts for my vehicle. Excellent customer service — thank you, Jennifer!
- TVTrevor VOct 28, 20255.0I went to Advanced Auto in desperate need of a new car battery. Bryan was extremely helpful, professional, and patient. He was able to maneuver through a rather difficult installation process due to the neglect of my battery, and I am very grateful for his help. If you need any type of assistance this store is where you need to go.
- MDMarty DayOct 27, 20255.0Chalk up another great review for Waylon. I first went in to get a cap for my washer fluid reservoir and talk about wiper blade. I was in a bind for time and told Waylon I’d be back. 2 hours later I returned and he told me his recommendation for wipers and Advance’s replacement program . Cheerful and helpful- he nailed. He gladly put the blades on for me despite the fact that it was getting busy. I’ll definitely return!

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.
