- SGStaci GroganSep 24, 20254.0Every time I place an order online to pick up, it still take longer than you would expect considering I ordered it ahead of time. I just want to pick up my order quickly and leave. Other than that, the store is in good clean condition. Not the best customer service in the world, but respectful and nice. The Speed Perks discounts are nice in the Advance Auto app.
- CCClaudia ChaconAug 8, 20251.0This is perhaps one of the worst advances in Woodbridge/Dumfries. I walked in and there were two employees, one busy with a customer and the other just standing. Four people in line, and they just ignore us. The four of us left after 10 minutes waiting, not because they were serving another customer, but because we saw another employee doing literally nothing and just ignoring us.
- DVDeveil Von-HeartJul 14, 20251.0Weird. Why is there a baby monitor…
- GLGabriel LancetteJul 12, 20252.0The return policy is terrible. I purchased an item, only to discover it was the incorrect part. I returned it the following day, only to be informed that I could not use my regular card for the return. Consequently, they issued me a merchandise card, which is absurd since I rarely visit their store. As a result, I’m unlikely to return in the future.

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.
