The guy behind the register was very helpful. I couldn't find what I was looking for, so he looked the item up in the computer and found it in their back storage.

Store was short handed, but the staff worked very diligently to test and replace my battery. Very pleased with the service.

Place sucks! Try to be as efficient as posible and order my products thru the app to plan to pick up the next day after work. I get a email saying someone picked up my stuff. I immediately call the store for them to explain to me the email their response “ yeah some short white girl picked it up” i tell them that nobody was meant to pick up my order and that this a mistake on their part and if i can pick it up later when i got off of work they said no because someone picked it up. my order was already payed for online. They tell me to call the 877 number they have me on hold for 1hr to end up telling me they cant do anything because it was picked up already. I demand a refund and they give me the same excuse i told them i was going to file a police report and their whole attitude shifted. They try to make file a complain thru hr and hanged up. Ended up getting refund but wastes so much time and had to go to the store to demand it. I suggest moving forward to train your employees to not give random people orders or to own up to their mistakes never had issue with any advance auto except this one.

made a order and gave it to the wrong person. I called and asked for a refund or my oil and filter and they said no. Called corporate and said they couldn’t do anything about it. Went in and finally got a refund. Train your employees better. Will never ever go back. Worst experience ever. Dont recommend this spot. If i could give zero stars i would.

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.
