I have a 2015 Kia Soul I bought new. In over 9 years, not a single thing has gone wrong with it - no repairs of any kind. Just oil, brakes and tires.
I just did brakes with: Powerstop Evolution Sport, Drilled/Slotted Discs, Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Pad Part Kit#: P15K5305, Mach V Techna-Fit SS Lines, Motul DOT 4 fluid. All for under $600 and I’ve been very happy with this setup. I don’t track but drive spirited and they’ve performed flawlessly, and no more brake dust.
I put the Geomet coated Powerstop rotor and ceramic pad front and rear kits from RockAuto on my ‘14 XT. They work well and my speed demon wife liked them better than the originals.
I went with the powerstop z26, i think, carbon ceramic pads and drilled and slotted rotors all around for about 550 dollars from autozone. Fit and finish were perfect and did all four corners in my driveway in a couple of hours. The brake in procedure is very simple and they work very well. Zero brake vibrations and feels so much better.
I did the entire powerstop front and rear kit, has worked great, 0 issues in roughly 20k miles.
i have had powerstop on my car for the last year and a bit, no complaints, brakes are still good for dailying but with more bite when you jam down on the pedal
I use the HD Powerstop with vented rotors, front and rear. I tow a trailer. They exceed the life of OEM pads. And stop well.
I took it out on a twisty road for about 40 miles, and did some hard stops. Seems to have resolved the issue. I read somewhere that these brakes need time for bed settling. I will say, they do stop impressively well. The factory stuff was underwhelming.
It’s very easy to replace the pads diy in Brembos. I used the powerstop z26 as well. But the fronts squealed something awful (started at like 10k) on low mph slow deceleration and the brake dust on the stock pads suck.
I put a set of power stops on the wife’s SUV the weekend before we got married. They lasted maybe 12,000 miles? Maybe less? They warped and started chattering something awful. Wound up doing rotors, pads and calipers on all four wheels: Raybestos coated rotors and heavy duty pads, haven’t had a problem since.
