If too much brake fluid is added, it

if the engine is hot enough. You or
others could be burned, and the

brake fluid only when work is done
on the brake hydraulic system.
When the brake fluid falls to a low

Brake fluid absorbs water over time

The wrong or contaminated brake
fluid could result in damage to the

If brake fluid is spilled on the
vehicle's painted surfaces, the paint
finish can be damaged. Immediately
wash off any painted surface.
