The pads are slotted to enhance heat dissipation during braking, which helps maintain consistent performance under various driving conditions. Chamfered edges reduce noise and vibration, while the included mechanical pad wear sensor alerts you when replacement is needed. The iron backing plates are bonded to the ceramic friction material, ensuring structural integrity and reliable braking response. Pad shims are included to help reduce brake noise and improve fitment. This set does not include mounting hardware or abutment clips.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis disc brake pad set is specifically designed for use on select Ford and Lincoln models, including:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFord Fusion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLincoln MKZ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsing the DuraGo BP1653C brake pads ensures proper fitment and performance tailored to these vehicles' braking systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Issues Addressed by These Brake Pads\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake noise and squeal caused by worn or incompatible pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced braking efficiency due to heat fade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremature pad wear without wear sensor alerts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake dust accumulation on wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVibration or pulsation during braking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen installing the DuraGo BP1653C brake pads, ensure the mechanical pad wear sensor is properly connected to maintain accurate wear monitoring.
