Brake pads press against the rotor to create the friction that slows the wheel; this set supplies the rear-axle friction pads for the listed vehicles. Signs the rear pads may need replacing include squealing, reduced braking response, or a grinding noise — have the brake system inspected to confirm the cause before replacing. For even, balanced braking, replace the pads on both sides of the rear axle as a matched set. Country of origin: United States.
