Compatible Vehicle Applications
- Fits 2013-2018 Ford C-Max, rear
- Fits 2013-2016 Ford Escape, rear
- Fits 2014-2017 Ford Transit Connect, rear
- Fits 2018 Ford Transit Connect, rear; vehicle production date to 5/27/2018, 12mm studs
Common Problems This Kit Addresses
- Rear brake noise during stops
- Rotor rust and surface corrosion
- Uneven braking feel from worn pads and rotors
- Longer stopping distances caused by worn friction material
- Brake pulsation from rotor wear or finish issues
Installation Notes
Install on the rear axle only and verify the vehicle production date and stud size for 2018 Transit Connect applications before ordering. The rotors are processed dry and ready to install, which reduces prep time during service. For proper results, clean the hub mounting surface, inspect calipers and slides, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake bedding procedure after installation. Part number 4502-99071 is commonly searched as a rear brake kit for Ford C-Max, Escape, and Transit Connect rear brake service.
Quality Assurance
DFC GEOSPEC rotors are machined to tight tolerances, inspected for critical dimensions, and balanced where required. Each rotor is covered by a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. The 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are post-cured and scorched to support stable friction performance from the first stop.
