Product Line Details

DFC GEOSPEC rotors are coated, dry-processed, and ready to install without additional preparation. The coating is designed to resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes, while the rotor casting is made to OE-style G3000/G11H18 cast iron specifications for durability and stability. The 3000 Ceramic Brake Pads are formulated for passenger vehicles and light-duty trucks, with low copper content to meet California and Washington requirements.

What This Brake Kit Helps Address

• Front brake wear on Buick Encore and Chevrolet Trax models
• Brake noise caused by worn pads or uneven rotor surfaces
• Excess brake dust from older friction material
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Uneven braking feel from rotors that need resurfacing or replacement

Installation Notes and Fitment

Fits 2013-2017 Buick Encore, front. Fits 2013-2017 Chevrolet Trax, front. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. Before installation, confirm rotor size, caliper condition, and pad wear pattern on the front axle. Clean the hub mounting surface and follow proper bedding procedures after installation to help achieve even pad transfer and consistent stopping performance.

Quality Assurance

Each rotor is 100% inspected for critical dimensions and balance, and every rotor is covered by a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. The pads are post-cured, scorched, and assembled with premium shims to support stable friction performance and quieter operation.
