Silence brake squeal and cut brake dust on the front axle with the Wagner ThermoQuiet QC1653 Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set. It installs as a front disc brake pad set for the 2013-2020 Ford Fusion [All], 2013-2020 Lincoln MKZ [All], 2019-2020 Ford Police Responder Hybrid [All], and 2019-2020 Ford SSV Plug-In Hybrid [All].
- Ceramic, zero-copper formulation: uses Wagner's OE25 zero-copper ceramic friction material.
- Quieter operation: Integrally Molded Insulator (IMI) technology combines friction material, backing plate, and insulator into a one-piece pad on select applications, and an application-specific, laser-shaped friction surface helps disperse heat, sound, and vibration.
- Slotted with chamfered edges: the pads are slotted and chamfered to help manage noise and heat.
- Included hardware: comes with a mechanical pad wear sensor, pad shims, and abutment clips.
The superior formulation is designed to dissipate heat for long-lasting friction performance and reduced brake fade, and to help reduce rotor wear and brake dust. Ceramic pads like these deliver a smooth, consistent pedal feel with ultra-low, lighter-colored dust compared to conventional semi-metallic pads during everyday street driving. Country of origin: United States.

What axle position is this set for?
The catalog lists it as a front set, so it services the front axle on the listed applications.
Is hardware included with these pads?
Yes. The set includes a mechanical pad wear sensor, pad shims, and abutment clips.
Are these ceramic pads?
Yes. They use Wagner's OE25 zero-copper ceramic friction formulation, which gives a smooth pedal feel and low, lighter-colored dust versus semi-metallic pads in everyday street driving.
Should I replace both sides at once?
This is a set for the front axle, covering both front wheels. Replacing pads across the axle together is recommended for even, balanced braking; inspect the rotors and service them as directed by the vehicle's service information.
