Smooth, quiet everyday stops start here. The Wagner ThermoQuiet QC856A Ceramic Front Disc Brake Pad Set drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty (All engines). Its ceramic friction formulation is designed for a smooth, consistent pedal feel with low, light-colored dust and quiet operation during everyday street driving.
- Zero-copper formulation: features Wagner's OE25 zero-copper ceramic friction material.
- IMI one-piece design: Integrally Molded Insulator technology bonds the friction material, backing plate and insulator into a single pad for quieter operation on select applications.
- Laser-shaped friction: an application-specific, laser-shaped surface helps spread heat, sound and vibration to reduce noise.
- Ready to install: chamfered, slotted pads with pad shims, abutment clips and a mechanical pad wear sensor included.
The superior formulation design helps dissipate heat for durable friction performance and reduced brake fade, while helping to cut brake dust. FMSI number 7732A-D856 (lining 7732A, steel D856). Made in the United States. Manufacturer part number QC856A.

Frequently Asked Questions
What vehicle does the QC856A fit?
It is a direct-fit front disc brake pad set for the 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty (All engines).
What friction material are these pads?
They use Wagner's ceramic OE25 zero-copper friction formulation, designed for quiet operation and low, light-colored dust during everyday street driving.
Is hardware included?
Yes. This set includes pad shims, abutment clips and a mechanical pad wear sensor, and the pads have chamfered edges and slots.
Are ceramic pads better than semi-metallic?
For daily driving, ceramic offers quieter stops, less visible dust and a smooth pedal feel. Semi-metallic is typically preferred for heavy-duty, towing or high-heat use.
When might my brake pads need replacing?
Signs may include squealing or grinding, longer stopping distances, or a wear-sensor indicator. Have the brake system diagnosed to confirm the cause before replacing.
