I’ve been going to this Advance Auto for years. I’ve seen its ups and downs with staff and inventory. I must say, right now, I’m very pleased with the staff and the store in general. May not always be the best price around, but they sure will help you find what you need. The staff keeps earning my business.

Thank you / shout out to Sam! When I first pulled up to the store, he immediately greeted me and my mother. He listened to my mom talk then me explain what I thought was the issue(lol), then showed knowledge about my issue right away and willingness to help, which goes a long way! He truly went the extra mile to help me when he could’ve easily said “that’s too difficult for us to do.” And sent me on my way. I’m extremely grateful for the expertise and kindness he’s shown me today. This also helped eliminate hardship for me all week being a single mom who works full time, and unexpectedly had my vehicle not start after a football game. Sincerest thank you to Sam!

Clerk refused to accept return when I literally bought it one hour ago with receipt from a location 10 miles away because, "we don't sell those." We'll the receipt and camera footage shows you do and you gave me the wrong size... When I asked for the district mgrs # he refused and actually called the police on me. I got the district mgrs # from a different location and ill never ever drop advanced agsin. That lazy, uneducated clerk literally could have messed up my life. 1 star.

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.
