- SBShane BSep 16, 20251.0To start off, I only gave this location 1 star because that was the lowest possible. This morning I went in just after they opened looking for a replacement rear wiper blade. I was the only customer in the store. Didn't even receive a greeting upon entering. Use the self QR scan to find my part. Couldn't locate one after several minutes of searching. The guy behind the counter busy scrolling on his phone, never once acknowledged me or asked if I needed help. Went across the street to O'Reilly and used the QR scan again. They had my part but it was in the back. The woman saw me looking ans swiftly came to assist. I did have to wait for her to retrieve my part from the back, but I received GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. I've found a new store for my diy automotive needs from now on. I live close to both these locations and will drive right past the Advance Auto in the future.

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.
