- JBjohn braun2 days ago5.0I visited Advance Auto Parts needing the battery in my car checked, I was warmly greeted and assisted by August, who was knowledgeable, thorough, and helpful. She took readings on my battery and after discovering it needed to be replaced, she gave me options. It was so refreshing to get great service, I hope Advance knows what a great asset they have, Thank you August, I will be telling people about your great service
- STScott TaylorOct 5, 20265.0I went here to get a new battery. Robert was very helpful and patient removing the old battery. My battery was more cumbersome to remove than most I believe. Other components needed to be removed prior to getting the battery out. I would definitely come here again for parts and other services that they offer.

Erika and Mikey helped set up my commercial account at the store, and Carlos, the Commercial Account Manager, made sure everything went smoothly.

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.
