- RHRita HewellJul 9, 20261.0I am writing this review on behalf of a friend that does not have a google account. Today my friend bought a Slime Valve Fishing Tool, which has a 1 year warranty against defects. This tool immediately broke as he started to use it -- he is well-versed on tire repair and how these tools work. He returned the tool immediately as defective... with his receipt ... and the staff behind the counter refused to refund his money because the tool had been taken out of the original packaging. He ultimately demanded the staff member call the actual store manager -- the staff eventually did, the manager told the staff member to refund the money ... and still the staff member argued about it because the tool was out of the original packaging. Advance Auto Parts -- how is this OK? How is this customer service when a part has a stated 1 year warranty against defects? How can your staff use the statement of "The item must be returned UNOPENED in it's original packaging" when you are talking about a defective item? Make it make sense, please. As I was coming online to leave this review, I noticed that another customer noted a similar problem with a return not that long ago. So what happened to my friend is not just a one-off incident but is a systemic problem at your store. My friend left your store and went immediately to O'Reilly Auto Parts. He explained what happened at your store and was assured that if there was any problem with the tool he bought from them that they would gladly exchange the tool or refund his money. This valve fishing tool was a $7 tool. Here is the result of your mishandling of this small-dollar item return. I doubt that my friend will go back to another Advanced Auto for any of his car or truck needs ... and he does a lot of his own repairs. I have been a fan of Advanced Auto in the past -- but I will also take my business elsewhere. Do better, Advance Auto.

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.
