This is a new glove box latch striker set for the 2013-2016 Ford Escape and the 2013-2018 Ford C-Max. The set includes both left and right side latch strikers.
The glove box latch striker is a small but important component that helps keep the glove box closed and secure. Over time, the striker can become worn or damaged, causing the glove box to not properly close or even fall open while driving. This can not only be a nuisance, but also a safety concern.
