Front Brake Pad for 2020-2026 Ford Explorer & More - Bosch BC2229
The Bosch BC2229 front brake pad for the 2020-2026 Ford Explorer and other vehicles is a ceramic pad from the Bosch QuietCast line, made for quiet stops and low brake dust.
- Bosch QuietCast ceramic brake pads use a patented copper-free friction formula with an advanced aerospace alloy that complies with 2025 Copper Free legislation.
- The pre-attached OE-style multilayer rubber core shim bonds rubber to steel for lower noise, more strength and corrosion resistance.
- PTFE and rubber coated hardware reduces vibration and noise and keeps the pads from binding in the caliper.
- The powder-coated backing plate prevents rust and corrosion.
- A protective transfer layer extends pad and rotor life.
A squeal from the mechanical wear sensor, grinding or a pull to one side can mean the pads are worn. During a brake service with the wheels off, measure the remaining pad thickness and look at the rotor faces for grooves before deciding the pads alone are the cause.
It also fits the 2020-2023 Lincoln Aviator and the 2020-2026 Ford Police Interceptor Utility. The 2020-2026 Ford Explorer takes one set of four pads for the front axle.
