- JCjavi carranzaApr 23, 20265.0Juan was amazing. I went in looking for lug nuts for my F-150 since the OEM ones tend to swell, and I wanted to replace them. They had several color options, and I wasn’t sure which ones to go with. Juan actually came outside with me and brought two different sets so we could see which matched better. It was a super warm and easy experience, great attitude goes a long way. Thanks, Juan!
- PCPaul CarrApr 20, 20261.0After buying a new battery for a zero turn mower they said they would not give me any credit for turning in the old battery. In addition they said they would pay $10 for a group 24 car battery that I had to turn in. After watching the employee attempt to get the computer to provide the $10 credit he said I would have to come back another time with the battery. I walked out with the battery and vowed to never shop at Advanced Auto ever again.
- STSam TrueMar 26, 20265.0Tony the evening manager is a superhero! He walked the through the issue with my car and his experience and helpfulness are second to none. The world would be a better place if there were more Tony's in it!
- RGR Barajas (GearWrench)Feb 23, 20265.0Great place for parts and good service. I appreciate the store employee named Juan Mares for helping me get the correct parts for my car.
- MJMarissa JacksonJan 26, 20265.0Juan at this location went above and beyond to help us when we had a dead battery! Our car died across the small street from here. We couldn't jump it to bring it to advance auto parts for them to change the battery we purchaces there. Juan walked across the street to change it out for us. Amazing customer service! Thank you so much for helping us!

A traditional lead/acid car battery can range between $60-$120. The difference in cost comes from a variety of things, like the size of the vehicle or any special requirements needed from the battery, i.e. an increased resistant to cold or hot climates. The type of battery also has an affect on the price whether it be a lead/acid, calcium, lithium-ion, deep-cycle.
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.
