In this review the reviewer finds the TRQ front and rear brake pad and rotor kit best suited for owners of 2013-2016 Ford C-Max and Escape models who want a complete, direct-fit replacement set. The biggest reason to buy is the all-in-one nature: both front and rear ceramic brake pads, premium G-coated slotted and drilled rotors, plus a brake cleaner and DOT 3/4 fluid arrive together, which simplifies a full brake service and reduces trips to multiple suppliers.

Key Features

• Complete kit: Includes front and rear ceramic pad sets, four performance rotors, brake cleaner and 12 oz DOT 3/4 brake fluid so installers have everything needed for a full axle service.
• Direct fit: Designed as an OE replacement disc brake kit for compatible 2013-16 Ford C-Max and Escape variants, which helps speed installation and reduces fitment surprises.
• Performance surface: Rotors are slotted and drilled with a premium G-coating to resist corrosion and aid heat dissipation under repeated braking.
• Pad hardware included: Both pad sets include contact point grease and hardware to help ensure proper seating and reduce excessive wear or noise when installed correctly.
• Vehicle references provided: Comes with extensive OE and aftermarket reference numbers to cross-check compatibility with specific VINs and part histories.

Who It's For

This kit is aimed at DIY mechanics and independent shops working on 2013-2016 Ford C-Max and Escape models that require a full front and rear brake refresh. It suits owners who prefer a single purchase that covers pads, rotors and basic brake chemicals for a straightforward service.

Customers who need exact OEM-match rotors for specialized performance or who cannot verify fitment from the provided references should consult manufacturer fitment guides or look for model-specific aftermarket rotors; those needing abnormally quiet, noise-optimized pads may also compare other pad compounds if squeal has been a persistent issue.
