Power Stop 21-22 Nissan Rogue Front Z17 Evo Ceramic Brake Pad w/Hardware

The 17-2375 is a set of front ceramic brake pads from PowerStop's Z17 Evolution Plus series, designed as a direct OE replacement for the 2021 and 2022 Nissan Rogue. These pads use a refined ceramic compound that reduces brake dust buildup on wheels, lowers noise during normal braking, and delivers stopping performance comparable to or better than the original pads they replace. The kit includes new hardware and shims, making it a complete front brake service solution.

Z17 Evolution Plus Ceramic Formula

PowerStop's Z17 Evolution Plus designation refers to the generation of ceramic compound used in the 17-2375. The ceramic formula is engineered to operate at the temperatures and pressures generated by typical street driving, including city stop-and-go traffic and highway deceleration. Compared to semi-metallic pads, ceramic compounds produce less abrasive dust, which means less of that dark residue accumulating on the face of alloy wheels over time. The compound is also formulated to reduce the high-frequency vibration that causes brake squeal during light-pressure stops, a common complaint with stock Rogue pads.

Pre-Scored Surface for Proper Break-In

The friction surface of the 17-2375 pads is pre-scored at the factory. These score marks promote even initial seating of the pad against the rotor face during the first several stops, helping to establish a consistent transfer film across the rotor surface more quickly than a flat, unscored pad. Following a proper break-in procedure after installation, as described in PowerStop's included instructions, will maximize initial performance and extend overall pad life.

Includes Hardware and Shims

This kit is not pads only. The 17-2375 includes replacement hardware clips and anti-noise shims specific to the 2021 and 2022 Nissan Rogue front caliper. Installing new hardware alongside new pads eliminates the corrosion and wear that accumulates on OE clips over time, which can cause uneven pad retraction, dragging, and noise. The shims are bonded and mechanically dampened to isolate vibration between the pad backing plate and the caliper piston and finger.

Front Pads Only

The 17-2375 covers the front axle only. Rear brake pads for the 2021 and 2022 Nissan Rogue are a separate part number. If you are performing a complete four-wheel brake pad service, confirm the correct PowerStop rear pad part number for your Rogue trim and drivetrain configuration before ordering.

What's Included

• 2 x PowerStop 17-2375 Z17 Evolution Plus front ceramic brake pads (inner and outer for one axle)

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the 17-2375 pads a direct replacement for the stock Nissan Rogue front brake pads?
Yes. The 17-2375 is a direct OE replacement designed to install into the existing front calipers of the 2021 and 2022 Nissan Rogue without modification. The pad geometry, backing plate dimensions, and hardware mounting points are matched to the factory caliper specifications. No bracket modifications, caliper adaptors, or machining are required.

Do ceramic pads require special rotors?
No. The Z17 Evolution Plus ceramic compound used in the 17-2375 is designed to work with standard cast iron rotors, including the OE Nissan rotors already on your Rogue. Ceramic pads are generally considered less abrasive to rotor surfaces than semi-metallic compounds, which can contribute to extended rotor life under normal street driving conditions. If your rotors are worn beyond the minimum thickness specification listed in your service manual, they should be replaced regardless of which pad compound you choose.

Will the 17-2375 reduce brake dust on my Rogue's wheels?
Ceramic compounds produce a lighter-colored, less adhesive dust than semi-metallic compounds, which means less visible buildup on alloy wheel faces between wash cycles. The Z17 Evolution Plus ceramic formula in the 17-2375 is specifically engineered for low dust output. You will likely notice a reduction in the dark, greasy coating that semi-metallic OE pads commonly leave, though no brake pad is completely dust-free.

Do the 17-2375 pads cover all Nissan Rogue trims for 2021 and 2022?
Yes. The 17-2375 fits all trim levels of the 2021 and 2022 Nissan Rogue on the front axle. This includes the S, SV, SL, and Platinum trims, as well as Sport and drivetrain variants. If you have any doubt about your specific configuration, cross-reference the 17-2375 part number on PowerStop's fitment guide using your vehicle identification number.

What is the break-in procedure for the 17-2375?
After installation, perform a series of moderate-pressure stops from approximately 35 mph down to 5 mph, allowing the brakes to cool between each stop. Repeat this sequence 8 to 10 times. Then perform two or three firmer stops from approximately 50 mph to 5 mph, again allowing cooling time. This process establishes an even transfer film between the pad and rotor surface. Avoid hard panic-stop braking or extended drag braking for the first 200 to 300 miles of use. Specific break-in instructions are included in the packaging.

Are the rear brake pads included in this kit?
No. The 17-2375 is a front axle brake pad kit only. Rear pads for the 2021 and 2022 Nissan Rogue require a separate part number. Check PowerStop's catalog for the correct rear pad application for your Rogue. If you plan to service all four corners at once, order both the front and rear pad sets before beginning the job.

What is the PowerStop lifetime warranty on the 17-2375?
PowerStop warrants the 17-2375 against defects in materials and workmanship for the lifetime of the product to the original purchaser. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, PowerStop is required to provide the full terms of this warranty to you prior to purchase. The warranty does not cover premature wear resulting from improper break-in, contamination of the brake system, use in racing or competition, or installation on vehicles other than those listed in the fitment guide. Contact PowerStop customer service with your proof of purchase to initiate a warranty claim.

Can I install the 17-2375 myself, or do I need a professional?
Brake pad replacement is a standard DIY job for anyone comfortable with vehicle maintenance. You will need a floor jack, jack stands, lug wrench, basic socket set, a C-clamp or caliper piston tool to retract the pistons, and brake cleaner. The 17-2375 includes all hardware and shims. PowerStop includes a printed instruction sheet in the box. If you are not confident in your mechanical ability or do not have the proper tools, professional installation is recommended since brakes are a safety-critical system.

Will the 17-2375 eliminate brake squeal on my 2021 or 2022 Rogue?
The Z17 Evolution Plus ceramic formula and the included bonded shims are both designed to minimize brake noise. Ceramic compounds vibrate at frequencies generally outside the audible range during normal stopping, and the shims dampen the transfer of vibration from the rotor through the pad to the caliper. In most cases, customers report noticeably quieter braking compared to worn OE semi-metallic pads. Some light noise during the first few heat cycles is normal and typically disappears once the break-in process is complete.
