Advance Auto Parts is a US automotive parts retailer with around 4,305 company-owned stores plus about 809 independently-owned Carquest stores across 44 states, founded in 1932 by Arthur Taubman in Roanoke Virginia (the oldest of the major US auto-parts chains) and now publicly traded as NYSE:AAP with headquarters in Raleigh North Carolina, known for the Advance Rewards loyalty program (rebranded from Speed Perks in February 2026), the Carquest sister brand, free in-store services (battery testing and installation, OBD-II code scanning, alternator and starter testing, fluid recycling), and the Pro Solutions B2B commercial program.
The questions readers actually ask: what time does Advance Auto Parts open today, when does the store close, are they open on Thanksgiving, Christmas, or Easter, what does the new Advance Rewards program cover, and Sunday hours.
Two Advance Auto Parts specific things worth knowing: most stores run 7:30 AM to 9:00 PM Monday through Saturday and 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM Sunday with no 24-hour locations chain-wide, and the chain completed a major restructuring in Q1 2025 (closed roughly 700 stores down to the current ~4,300 company-owned footprint, sold the Worldpac wholesale business to Carlyle, and replaced the Speed Perks loyalty program with Advance Rewards in February 2026); the chain is closed on Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day chain-wide. Auto-parts sibling O’Reilly Auto Parts follows the same Thanksgiving-and-Christmas-only closure pattern with a similar 7:30 AM weekday open. Cooperative-style auto-parts sibling NAPA Auto Parts uses a different model with about 75% of stores independently owned, so NAPA hours vary much more widely store-to-store.
