PowerStop L5215 front right brake caliper for the 2011-2017 Ford Explorer and other vehicles clamps the pads against the rotor to slow the wheel. PowerStop brake calipers like this one are sold individually and replace the original stock caliper.
A disc brake caliper that is sticking or leaking can show up as the vehicle pulling to one side, a dragging wheel or fluid around the caliper. A worn rotor, tired pads or a damaged brake hose can be behind these signs too, so find the cause before buying. Front calipers are normally replaced as a pair; this listing is one caliper, for the front right, and the front left is ordered separately.
The 2011-2017 Ford Explorer takes one of these brake calipers at the front right, and many other vehicles take it too. It is also a brake caliper for the 2010-2017 Ford Taurus. If your vehicle is not named here, look it up in the "Vehicles it fits" section.
