Cindy helped me find a great pair of windshield wipers and informed me about a plan with the manufacturer that would allow me to purchase the same windshield wipers for $9 in 12 months. That’s a great deal! Cindy installed the windshield wipers on my truck and my wife’s car today. I am very appreciative of what Cindy helped me with today. She is highly deserving of the 5 star rating I gave her and her store. Thank you Cindy for helping me out today. It is very appreciated.

Tuesday morning on my way to work and realized I needed new wiper blades. Pulled into advance in TR and was helped by the manager Cindy. She even went out into the rain and installed them for me as well. She was very helpful and polite. Will be back if I need anything else!

I am SO glad this was the auto parts store I chose. I had just had a creepy, frustrating experience with a roadside assistance guy who thought he knew everything but was clearly an idiot about electric cars. Then I called this Advance Auto Parts. Tay not only understood electric cars and knew what I needed -- he was also super reassuring with a wonderfully calming voice. He replaced my 12V battery quickly and expertly. It runs beautifully now. Tay, and this store, now have my absolute loyalty for auto parts! Tay's wife is really cool too! Thank you for hiring such great people!

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.
