Went to Advanced Auto Parts on Church St. in Whitinsville with a battery that I thought was running low. I asked if they could run a test for me which they did and found out it needed to be replaced. The boss, unfortunately I didn’t get his name, was super friendly and helpful and had me out of there with a new battery in no more than 10 minutes. 10/10 would recommend if you need a need battery in a rush.

I had a great experience at Advance Auto Parts in Whitinsville Mass thanks to Jim! I went in to have my battery checked, and he confirmed it was fine—but he didn’t stop there. Jim took the time to thoroughly look into what might actually be causing the issue.
He tried multiple jump boxes (three of them!) and stayed with me the entire time until we were finally able to get my car running. He was kind, friendly, patient, and truly went above and beyond to help.
A+ service! If you need help, Advance Auto Parts is definitely the place to go. Thank you again, Jim!

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.
