Parts for your 2015 Ford Falcon-Pedal pads

2015 Ford Falcon pedal-pads: fitment, purpose and service advice

Technical sources confirm pedal-pads are fitted to the 2015 Ford Falcon (FG X). The Ford FG/FG X Falcon Workshop Manual brake pedal assembly illustration shows a separate rubber brake pedal cover, and manual-transmission variants also have a clutch pedal rubber. The Ford parts catalogue (Ford Microcat/ETIS) lists serviceable rubber covers for brake (and clutch where fitted), while the accelerator is an electronic pedal with an integral plastic tread, not a separate pad. The 2015 Falcon Owner’s Manual also advises keeping pedal surfaces clean and free from contamination, supporting the presence of removable covers on brake/clutch.

On the 2015 Falcon, pedal-pads do a simple but crucial job: they provide a grippy, durable contact surface so boots don’t slip under braking or clutch work. The ribbed rubber isolates vibration, maintains pedal feel in the wet, and meets roadworthy expectations in Australia and New Zealand. Autos get a brake pedal pad, manuals get brake and clutch pedal pads. The accelerator uses a moulded tread built into the pedal assembly, so it isn’t replaced as a separate pad.

As part of routine servicing, it’s smart to inspect pedal-pads annually or at each brake service. Tell-tale signs they’re due for replacement include:

• Ribs worn smooth, shiny or hardened
• Cracks, splits, or edges curling away from the metal pedal
• Pad loosening, slipping, or contamination that won’t clean off

When replacement’s needed, use a pad that matches the FG/FG X Falcon’s pedal shape. Fitment is tool-light: with the ignition off, pull the old pad off the pedal plate, clean the metal surface, then warm the new rubber slightly and work its lip over the pedal from one edge to the other. A touch of mild soapy water can help, avoid oils or silicone that leave things slippery.

For upkeep between services, a quick wash with mild detergent keeps grit and brake dust from glazing the rubber. Avoid harsh solvents. If the vehicle sees lots of commuting or wet/muddy conditions, consider replacing pads sooner—worn or loose covers can lead to a WoF/RWC fail and, more importantly, reduced control underfoot.

Popular questions

Do 2015 Ford Falcon models have replaceable pedal-pads?
Yes. The brake pedal has a replaceable rubber pad on all variants, and manual models also have a replaceable clutch pedal pad. The accelerator is a drive-by-wire unit with an integral tread, so it isn’t a separate pad.

How often should pedal-pads be replaced on a 2015 Falcon?
There’s no fixed kilometre interval. They should be replaced whenever the rubber is smooth, cracked, loose, or contaminated beyond cleaning. A quick check at every brake service or annual inspection keeps things safe and roadworthy.

Can worn pedal-pads cause a WoF or RWC failure?
They can. If the pad is missing, loose, or too slippery to provide secure footing, inspectors may fail the vehicle. Fresh, correctly fitted pads restore grip and pedal feel straight away.
