I stopped by my local O’Reilly Auto Parts here in Charleston, SC, and the service was top-notch—especially considering how chilly it was outside!
Big shoutout to two awesome employees, Ben and Wyatt. They were super friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. They took the time to help us find exactly what we needed, answered all our questions, and made sure everything was right before we left. No rushing us out the door, just genuine great customer service even in the cold weather.
Ben and Wyatt really went above and beyond and turned what could have been a quick errand into a pleasant experience. It’s refreshing to see team members who care that much about helping customers.
Thanks again, Ben and Wyatt—you guys are the best! I’ll definitely be back to this store and recommending it to friends and family in the Charleston area.

They don’t usually do battery replacements on my car but it wouldn’t turn on so they did it no charge for me on the spot - awesome service and everyone so nice!

Horrible service, went in to buy 2 items, on my way out I noticed I was over charged on both items, showed the counter person the prices were marked on both cheaper, he scanned again and said that was the new price and instead of adjusting to the marked price he gave me a full refund, I drove down the street to Oreilly they were extremely helpful and I saved $15, Oreilly obviously wants my business, never again will I shop at Advanced Auto, beware of being overcharged and horrible service. Don’t make the same mistake just shop at Oreilly.

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.
