The Story
Front Brake Kit for Hyundai and Kia
The Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads kit combines coated front rotors and matched brake pads in one service package. Part number 4502-03141 is built for front axle brake service on select Hyundai Kona, Kia Forte, Kia Forte5, Kia Seltos, and Kia Soul applications.
This brake kit is a direct service solution for drivers looking for OE-style rotor and pad replacement with corrosion protection, stable friction, and a cleaner installation process.
Key Features
- Complete front disc brake kit with rotors and pads
- DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- Dry-processed, dry-shipped rotors ready for installation
- Non-directional rotor finish for more even pad bed-in and smoother braking
- G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor construction for OE-style durability and stability
- DFC 5000 Advanced pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pads to reduce initial break-in time
- Rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise, vibration, and harshness control
Product Line Details
DFC Complete Brake Kits are packaged to simplify front brake service by pairing matched rotors and pads for the same axle. The GEOSPEC rotor line focuses on corrosion protection and installation efficiency, while the 5000 Advanced pad line is formulated for stable friction performance across a range of passenger vehicles and light trucks.
Detailed Description
Part number 4502-03141 is engineered as a front brake service kit for 2014-2016 Kia Soul, 2017-2019 Kia Soul, 2018-2022 Hyundai Kona, 2019-2021 Kia Forte, 2020-2021 Kia Forte5, 2021-2022 Kia Seltos, and 2022 Kia Forte with electric parking brake. The coated rotors are machined to tight tolerances, finished with a non-directional surface, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions to support consistent braking performance. The brake pads are post-cured, scorched, and assembled with premium shims to help reduce noise and improve pedal feel. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Common Problems This Kit Can Address
- Front brake rotor rust and surface corrosion
- Brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
- Squeal or noise from aged pad material
- Longer stopping distances caused by worn friction components
- Uneven pad bed-in after a front brake refresh
Installation Notes and Tips
Fits 2014-2016 Kia Soul, front. Fits 2017-2019 Kia Soul, front. Fits 2018-2022 Hyundai Kona, front. Fits 2019-2021 Kia Forte, front. Fits 2020-2021 Kia Forte5, front. Fits 2021-2022 Kia Seltos, front. Fits 2022 Kia Forte, front, w/Electric Parking Brake. Clean the hub surface before installation, verify rotor orientation where applicable, and follow proper pad bedding procedures after service. Because the rotors are shipped dry, no oil removal step is required before installation.
Quality Assurance
DFC GEOSPEC rotors are manufactured to OE specifications, then inspected for balance and critical dimensions. Each rotor includes a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
