Front and Rear Ceramic Brake Pad & Rotor Kit for 2013-20 Fusion

Our review of this front and rear ceramic brake pad and rotor kit focuses on drivers of 2013-2020 Ford Fusion models (including SE, S, Titanium and Hybrid trims) and 2013-2016 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid owners who want a one-stop replacement. The bottom line: this kit replaces both front and rear pads and rotors with direct-fit, OE-replacement components for a complete service in a single purchase. It is best for owners seeking an OE-style feel and value, and for DIYers who prefer straightforward, vehicle-specific parts without hunting for separate rotors and pads.

Key Features

• Complete kit: Includes front and rear ceramic brake pad sets plus two front and two rear rotors for a full brake service in one purchase.
• Direct fit: Designed as an OE replacement so parts install with minimal modification and match factory mounting points for a straightforward swap.
• Ceramic pads: The ceramic compound aims to deliver quieter operation and consistent braking performance similar to OEM feel.
• Vehicle specific fitment: Listings include fitment checks and reference numbers so buyers can confirm compatibility with Fusion and MKZ model years and trims.
• Known reference numbers: Provides OE and aftermarket reference numbers to help confirm correct part cross-reference during ordering or at the parts counter.
• Concrete rotor sizes: Front and rear rotor diameters are specified so installers can verify fitment against vehicle measurements.

Who It's For

This kit is intended for owners of 2013-2020 Ford Fusion models and 2013-2016 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid who want a full brake replacement that matches OE specifications.
