ABSOLUTE CROOKS!! Sold me a “brand new” battery that was only 27% health. Had to use my warranty to get it exchanged!! I would implore people DO NOT BUY BATTERIES FROM THEM!!! Obviously sat on the shelf for years and they still sold it. I will NEVER buy anything from them again. Im going to try to see what corporate says because this seems criminal but im not holding my breath. Absolutely disgusting business practices. Im in disbelief. Too many other auto part stores to let them screw you over. The guy that worked there argued with me the battery was fine on his little simple scanner. AAA showed me on their laptop it was bad and he was telling me they were wrong. No way I should have had to use the warranty. You expect a battery to be 100% health when you purchase a brand new one. Not there, they want to sell you junk and have to use up the warranty to even get what you originally paid for. Do yourself a favor DONT SHOP THERE!!!!!! They WILL take advantage of you one way or another.

I had a tricky batter that was about dead and Jonathan figured out how to get it out and replace it. They also informed me I needed more coolant. Really smart and helpful folks here.

My husband and I went to the Advanced Auto Parts store in West Hartford CT and had the best experience! Diana helped me with new windshield wipers and another employee quickly installed them. Everyone there was extremely friendly and positive. Diana took her time with us to help me with my wipers and then help my husband with a not so common battery. We will definitely be returning to this store.

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.
