- ATAlfredo TerrazasOct 29, 20251.0went to this Advance Auto Parts to buy a specific part for my truck ,gave them the exact model and details, but they sold me the wrong part. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize it until I opened the box to check it, and when I went back to return it after about 10 minutes of the buy, they told me they couldn’t take it back because it was opened. I understand policies are in place, but it’s frustrating since the mistake wasn’t mine. I expected better customer service and a bit more flexibility in resolving the issue. — I won’t be coming back.
- JMJay MoneySep 30, 20251.0There’s a reason why parking lot is always empty! This store is full of people who don’t have a damn clue about parts and absolutely zero customer service skills! Back when Shelly was GM and keeshaw was running commercial it was a great store and you had to know parts to work there now they will hire anyone who can spell there name
- BKBrenda KlausSep 10, 20255.0Dean was so courteous and kind. Upon my arrival, he immediately came to my car to test my battery, was very helpful during the purchase process, and had the new battery installed in a matter of minutes. This is the type of quality customer service I have received in past visits at Advanced Auto and Dean definitely didn’t disappoint. Thank you so much!!!

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.
