- SLScott LevergoodMay 11, 20265.0⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stopped into AutoZone around 4:45–5:00 PM on Monday, May 11th, 2026, and the guy at the counter was seriously awesome. Super respectful, patient, and genuinely helpful. You can tell he actually cares about helping customers instead of just rushing people through. Good attitude, good energy, and made the whole experience easy. AutoZone needs more employees like that 👏🔥

- ZSZack SchneiderJun 20, 20245.0Advance Auto Parts, Inc., a leading automotive aftermarket parts provider in North America, has built a reputation for delivering high-quality products and exceptional customer service.

Today, in an effort to get an oil change for my 2023 Mini Cooper AWD Countryman S, I realized that no one was going to stock the specific oil filter I needed. This meant I had to bring my own filter if I wanted to proceed with the oil change. I decided to stop at Advance Auto Parts, and I was pleasantly surprised by the experience. The staff at Advance Auto Parts quickly looked up the correct oil filter and oil for my vehicle and even went to grab them off the shelf for me. Their efficiency and friendliness made my day, especially since they had everything I needed in stock. This level of service is a testament to the company's commitment to customer satisfaction and its ability to meet diverse automotive needs. Advance Auto Parts is more than just a retail store; it is a reliable partner for all your automotive needs. Whether you are a DIY enthusiast or a professional mechanic, Advance Auto Parts provides the products, services, and support you need to keep your vehicle running smoothly. My recent experience highlights the company's dedication to excellent customer service and its ability to provide the right parts at the right time.

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.
