Designed for smooth, quiet rear braking, this BOSCH brake rotor (part number 53011511) comes from the Bosch QuietCast line. It is cataloged as a rear rotor for the 2020-2023 Ford Explorer. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific application details.
As a disc brake rotor, it provides the surface the brake pads clamp against to slow the wheel, turning motion into heat. A rotor may need replacing if you notice a pulsating brake pedal, vibration while braking, grinding noise, or visible scoring or grooves on the braking surface. Other brake components can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing parts. Replacing both rear rotors together as a matched pair is recommended for even, balanced braking.
