Product Details
Dynamite Friction’s DFC Complete Brake Kits package the main brake service components together so the rotor, pad, and hardware pieces are selected for the same application. This rear kit is intended for select 2011-2018 Chevrolet Cruze, 2013-2016 Chevrolet Sonic, 2013-2017 Chevrolet Trax, 2016 Chevrolet Cruze Limited, and 2013-2017 Buick Encore rear brake service. The drilled and slotted rotor design adds a silver corrosion-protected finish, while the ceramic pad formulation supports quiet, consistent braking in daily driving.
Part number 7512-45029 is a practical choice when replacing worn rear brake components on a Chevrolet Cruze rear brake kit or Buick Encore rear brake kit application. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Common Problems This Kit Can Address
- Rear brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
- Squealing or noisy braking from aged pads

- Uneven rear brake wear during routine service
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify rear axle fitment against the vehicle listing before ordering. Inspect caliper condition, slide pins, and brake fluid condition during service, and clean all mating surfaces before installation. Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s torque specifications and bedding procedure after installation for proper pad and rotor break-in.
