Warranty Details (LIMITED LIFETIME REPLACEMENT)
Carquest Premium Gold brake pads are original equipment (O.E.) replacement brake pads designed for consistent, quiet and clean braking. Our brake pads are engineered by manufacturers that meet IATF 16949 certified framework, an internationally recognized proof of quality in the automotive industry. Carquest Premium Gold brake pads utilize application-specific friction formulations that provide extended pad life and cleaner wheels. These brake pads also feature OE-designed slots and chamfers for consistent performance. To prevent noise, our Carquest Premium Gold brake pads also utilize a multi-layer shim and are supplied with new brake hardware (most applications-see fitment notes). Carquest Premium Gold brake pads are the best choice when looking for brake pads that meet or exceed the OE stopping performance.

Product Features:
  • Application-specific friction formulations provide shorter stopping distances and extended pad life
  • Hardware included for most applications
  • OE-designed slots and chamfers to reduce noise and vibration
  • Multi-layer shim provides near silent braking
  • Powder-coated backing plate prevents corrosion

Great Value
For the money, these brake pads are excellent. I had thought about purchasing ceramic pads instead, but decided that they were not necessary for my application (Toyota Rav4.) They were extremely easy to install. Despite the fact that these pads are not a "peformance" grade product, I have been impressed with the improvement of the the brake feel over the stock pads (not that it should come as a surprise.) Overall, these brake pads have been a significant improvement to the quality of my vehicle and I would definitely recommend this product to any one considering these pads for their own vehicle.

I WILL CHECK WITH NAPA FIRST THE NEXT TIME I NEED PARTS!!
After ordering two sets of disc brake pads online which were confirmed in stock, I arrived at store #5118 to be told by the manager that one set should not have been confirmed since they were NOT in stock. Four store employees were running around trying to find them!! I finally asked the manager (Antonio) to call the Brooklyn store to see if they had them. They confirmed that they had them so I went and picked them up. I lost a lot of time on that job! NOT TOO HAPPY AND I'LL PROBABLY CHECK WITH NAPA FIRST THE NEXT TIME I NEED PARTS!!!!!!
