- RFRobert FrahmMar 30, 20265.0The team here was very helpful and able to get me what I needed for my older HD truck that is a special type. The parts do not come up in the system like others but Brad at this store was so helpful in getting me the right parts. He was so friendly and eager to make sure I had the correct things even if I couldn't get them at his store. Service like that is hard to find these days and I will always go to this store if I am in the area. Thank you Brad for being a great rep for Advanced Auto Parts and being a great person. You and your team made my life easy.
- DWDavid WeissMar 3, 20265.0I came in store looking for a car manual Carley Brown waited on me. I aim not a regular customer. She asked me what I needed it for I explained what code I got on my pickup. She looked it up found what the code was and printed out instructions on how to find out what I needed and where to go to get instructions on internet on fixing it. She went far and beyond what I have ever had a parts store person do for me and I’m 77 so I have been in lots of different parts stores. She should get employe of the year.

- AFAmber FraherJan 24, 20265.0Zane and Tracy were so helpful with getting a battery for me and installing. Great customer service!
- JLJadah LimasJan 23, 20265.0Really great experience today. Right off the bat after walking into the store I was welcomed and actually attended to. The store had the battery I needed and Zane explained to me the warranty and without hesitation quickly installed my battery in below freezing weather. I was in and out in less than 15min. Since I will be coming back here I even signed up for the rewards program. Thank you Zane for making my day a little less stressful.

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.
