Detailed fitment and design

The Wagner Brake SevereDuty line is engineered for vehicles that see repeated hard stops and heavier operating demands. This SX1596 rear disc brake pad set uses a semi-metallic compound with slotted faces, chamfered edges, and a mechanical wear sensor to support stable braking feel and service monitoring. It fits 2011-2020 Dodge Grand Caravan rear, 2012-2020 Dodge Journey rear, 2012-2016 Chrysler Town & Country rear, 2014-2015 Ram C/V rear, and 2012-2014 Volkswagen Routan rear. This part cross-references 68144209AA for the same application.

What it helps address

• Brake fade during repeated stop-and-go driving.
• Premature pad wear in heavy-duty service.
• Noise and uneven contact from worn pad surfaces.
• Reduced braking consistency under load.
• Service intervals that require wear indication.

Installation notes and quality

Confirm rear axle fitment and heavy-duty brake package requirements before ordering, since some applications require specific brake configurations. Replace pads as a matched axle set and inspect rotors, caliper hardware, and guide components during service. Wagner Brake SevereDuty pads are tested for demanding-duty use and are identified by part number SX1596.
