Parts for your 2019 Ford Mondeo-Pedal pads

2019 Ford Mondeo pedal pads — what they do and how to look after them

Technical check: According to Ford’s workshop information and parts catalogues (ETIS/Microcat) for the 2019 Mondeo CD391, the vehicle is fitted with replaceable rubber pedal pads on the brake pedal (automatic and manual) and on the clutch pedal (manual). Aftermarket catalogues that mirror Ford OE listings also show serviceable “pad—pedal” items for this model. So pedal pads are relevant and used on the 2019 Ford Mondeo.

On the 2019 Ford Mondeo, pedal pads do a deceptively important job. They provide reliable grip underfoot, help dampen vibration, and protect the metal pedal plates from wear. In day-to-day Aussie and Kiwi driving—wet brollies, sandy beaches, muddy boots—the rubber surface is what keeps a shoe planted where it should be, especially in the rain.

For Mondeo variants with an automatic, there’s a single serviceable rubber pad on the brake pedal. Manual models have two: brake and clutch. The accelerator uses a textured plastic face that’s part of the pedal assembly rather than a separate rubber pad. Some trims may have factory “alloy-look” or sports pedals with rubber inserts, those use different caps or inserts but serve the same safety purpose.

As part of routine servicing, it’s smart to inspect pedal pads every visit or roughly every 10,000–15,000 km. Replace them if they’re hard, shiny, cracked, torn, or starting to loosen at the edges. A worn or missing brake pedal pad can contribute to a Roadworthy/WOF fail, and more importantly, it can be slippery—never ideal.

Replacement is quick and tidy:

1. Park safely, ignition off, floor mat out. Make sure footwear and the pad are dry.
2. Peel the old pad off the pedal plate, starting at a top corner.
3. Clean the bare metal plate, remove any rust or grit and dry thoroughly.
4. If the new pad feels tight, warm it slightly (lukewarm water) to make it more pliable.
5. Hook the lower lip first, then roll the pad over the top until it’s fully seated all around.
6. Press-test the edges and give it a few firm foot presses to confirm it’s secure before driving.

Use quality, model-specific pads—automatic and manual differ, and RHD models like local Mondeos have their own fit. If the car has sports/alloy pedals, order the matching cap or insert. The accelerator face generally isn’t padded, if it’s damaged, replace the pedal assembly rather than trying to add a cover.

Popular questions about 2019 Ford Mondeo pedal pads

How can someone tell the pedal pads need replacing?
If the rubber looks smooth and shiny, feels slippery when wet, has cracks or tears, or is starting to lift at a corner, it’s due. Any loss of grip is a red flag. During servicing, a quick visual and touch check will usually pick this up.

Are the pads different for auto and manual Mondeos?
Yes. Automatics have one serviceable pad on the brake, manuals have two (brake and clutch), and they’re not always the same size. Sports/alloy pedal trims use different caps or inserts, so match the pad to the exact trim and transmission.

Can universal pedal covers be used?
Best to avoid. Universal covers can foul pedal travel or reduce grip. Vehicle-specific pads fit properly, maintain the correct pedal feel, and meet OE design—important for safety and for passing Roadworthy/WOF checks.
