- BBBob BoschNov 10, 20254.0Counter person was the only the out there without help, but Great attitude and service
- SDsabrina doughertyJul 16, 20255.0Shout out to Mike for helping me with my wiper blades !
- THTheresa Haffner-StearnsJun 30, 20253.0Neither of the sales people told me about the air conditioning coolant special, I had to ask after I left the store and saw the sign outside. That's exactly what I bought. I also bought a windshield wiper and neither of them offered to install it for me, even though there's a great big sign in their window stating they'll install your wipers for you. I was disappointed. Other members of their staff have been very helpful to me in the past.
- KSKristie SMay 19, 20255.0Came home from work and noticed my vehicle was running sluggish and once arriving at home to be parked in idle only to feel the car shaking a bit. Advance had 15 minutes before closing tonight Monday May 19th. and so I quickly went down for spark plugs and once I arrived at the entrance Isaac Z. Welcomed me very professional polite without hesitation and as he typed in my vehicle being a 2018 Kia Optima Ex (sadly not the greatest cars out there) I asked him what his opinion was on spark plugs etc. I thought expensive would be better like NGK ix or denso being 24 or 26 a piece and he gave his honest opinion in stating that the autolite iridium for 10.99 are the best out there still and work just as good etc. He also helped me pick out gas treatment and I went for the high mileage expensive 9.99 and he stated to get the lucas for 6.99 as it's always been really great and actually better. He was so calm with a smile and caring. He helped me 100% all the way as I know nothing mechanic wise etc. He would always say miss to me as a respectful gentleman and I felt comfortable and welcomed at advance auto. He was of best help. He deserves a raise!!! Tuesday May 20th (exited review) Unfortunately next day of removing old spark plugs and to opening the box of new. Found out by my bf that they aren't the correct spark plugs. They are totally a different size and incorrect fit. So Wednesday tomorrow I'll be returning them/swapping for the right set as I gave all my cars info. Mistakes happen.

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.
