I was coming in to buy something and asked if my kid could use the restroom and said they don’t have any restrooms available like I get it because the area is rough which is a six-year-old kid and he needed a restroom. I wonder why all the advanced locations are starting to close down Terrible customer service and then when I said no wonder why advance sucks. They said well you can go to McDonald’s great customer service. Won’t be long before all these locations are shut down either. Sometimes it’s about putting the customer first and not just being completely disregarded for people.

Nice! The attendants very helpful, store clean organized, the trainee did ask what I needed,,, a plus,,,,,but was still finishing up with another customer.., so my service fell short. But I quickly forgot that once the experienced worker took his time to lay out all of my options. I do have to return tomorrow to pickup my parts. It would have been nice if they would have called to inform me that the parts did arrive as scheduled.

The prices were a little higher than Auto Zone. I was fortunate enough that a very friendly employee put my windshield wipers on out in the freezing cold for me which I appreciated very much!

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.
