Rear Brake Kit for 11-17 Honda Odyssey and 07-13 Acura MDX - Reliable

In this review the reviewer looks at the Detroit Axle rear brake kit and its fit for several Honda and Acura models. The bottom line: this kit is for owners who need a direct-fit, ready-to-install rear rotor and pad set and want a durable, quiet replacement that matches OEM fit and finish. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of proper fit and tested durability, which translates to improved braking feel and low noise after installation. The kit reviewed includes two rear disc rotors and two rear ceramic brake pads with hardware and carries a 10-year warranty.

Key Features

• Direct fit: Includes 2x rear disc rotors and 2x rear ceramic brake pads with hardware so the parts install without modification on the listed model years.
• OEM-level fit and finish: The kit is built to exceed OEM specification to deliver a consistent pedal feel and proper rotor-pad contact.
• Durability testing: Components undergo impact, wear, and fatigue testing to reduce early failure and maintain braking performance over time.
• Quiet ceramic pads: Ceramic pads are specified for lower noise and a smoother initial engagement compared with some semi-metallic pads.
• Long warranty: A 10-year warranty provides long-term reassurance against manufacturing defects and premature wear.

Who It's For

This kit is best for owners of 2007-2013 Acura MDX, 2010-2013 Acura ZDX, 2009-2014 Honda Pilot and 2011-2017 Honda Odyssey who want a straightforward replacement that restores braking performance without custom work. It suits DIYers and technicians who value a complete rear kit that includes rotors, ceramic pads and mounting hardware.

Shoppers who need front brakes, specialty performance rotors, or a different pad compound for heavy towing or track driving should look elsewhere; this kit targets everyday street use and comfortable, quiet braking rather than extreme-duty or track-specific performance.
