How do people like this even work in customer service. I just went in to buy a battery for my car, and apparently I inconvenienced the two people working in there. There was one other customer that was buying a battery. When I asked to buy one as well I got attitude from both employees saying that they couldn’t install a battery because it was just them two working. I never even asked them to install my battery. I just wanted to purchase one. I’m very capable of removing two nuts and replacing a battery. With their attitude they should not be in customer service especially working at a place that gets business advertising free battery check and replacement. It’s 4pm on Friday Oct. 30. The two people working at this time. Shame on you. Needless to say I got my battery installed with great customer service at AutoZone in Cary. 8 min down the road.

It's not a great shopping center but Advance Auto holds it in place. The employees I met are polite and they really work hard to get you on your way. I have always been well addressed and well taken care of.
Great customer service.

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.
