This part number, 4512-99156, is a direct front brake service solution for Ford Escape and Mazda Tribute models listed below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat This Kit Helps Address\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven pad wear caused by aged hardware components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLonger stopping distances from worn friction material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake pulsation related to rotor wear or finish issues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall on the front axle only. The rotors are shipped dry and ready to install, which reduces prep time during service. For best results, clean the hub mounting surface, inspect calipers and slides, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake bedding procedure after installation. Verify fitment by year, make, model, and position before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDFC GEOSPEC rotors are 100% inspected after machining and come with a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. DFC 5000 Advanced pads are post-cured and scorched for stable performance, and the hardware kit is built to OE-style form, fit, and function.
